AcoustiMix: Discoveries — Emma Charles

Today we'd like to tell you about Emma Charles.

Emma Charles is a young folk/pop singer-songwriter who grew up just down the road in Westport, and graduated from Berklee College of Music in Boston — but it somehow took her moving to Los Angeles, releasing an EP named Connecticut and a recommendation from a longtime favorite band, SHEL, for us to discover her music. Emma mixes "effortlessly beautiful vocals" (American Songwriter Magazine) that "flutter upwards serenely through the loneliness and darkness like a beam of radiant light" (LA Weekly) with "savvy lyricism and intuitive musicianship offering layers not always seen in contemporary mainstream music" (Popmatters). Even though we've only been listening a short time, Emma is quickly becoming one of our favorites! 

Recent release: "Connecticut," February 2020

Check out: A brand new single out today! "25" is quite infectious (we were singing along by the third listen) and tells an introspective story about the struggles of keeping a steady friendship.
