Hello :) I’m a singer-songwriter from New Jersey, living primarily in London! I’ve been traveling around Europe for two years, singing originals and covers with my guitar in 18 different cities along my journey: London, Edinburgh, Brighton, Frankfurt, Munich, Florence, Rome, Palermo, Paris, Lyon, Toulouse/Muret, Helsinki, Istanbul, Brasov, Cluj-Napoca, Timisoara, and Belgrade. Mainly I perform in streets, pubs, or people’s homes :)

After living in Istanbul for 3 months, I’ve recently traveled (this May) through Bulgaria and Romania to Serbia. I’m en route to meet my boyfriend Orlando in Ljubljana; then we’re going to explore East Europe together!! We plan to go to Pula, Zagreb, Budapest, Vienna, Prague, Berlin, Amsterdam, Paris, Lyon, and Edinburgh. We’ll even perform together :)
(Link to his profile at bottom of “About Me”)

I love to experiment+jam with different artists. i like listening to electronic music, indie rock, folk music from every part of the world (particularly America, Brazil and Ethiopia), I also love jazz and soul, funk, disco, classical, jungle, drum and bass, rap, singer songwriters, hiphop, experimental/avant garde and so much more!

Through traveling and performing music, I’ve met so many amazing brilliant people, jammed with lovely artists, and even organized and hosted a music, art and dancing event in London. (I love to go out dancing to all kinds of music!! If it bumps it bumps !!!!!)

Before this trip, I lived and worked in Brooklyn after uni and made music in my free time 💕 So excited to meet you all on our adventure, and maybe even host you one day! Send us a message if you‘d love to meet, go for coffee/a walk, and/or host us in your City! <3 Much love, Emily

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I lived and studied in Havana, Cuba during Fall 2019! I performed in a club with Cuban artists, learned Spanish, and learned some Cuban culture and history — making friends in a place I’d never visited before was amazing and inspired me to travel more!
