Happy new year listeners of dHarmic Evolution! How’s your new year? I hope that it will be productive, inspired, and prosperous!

 

As we greet a new great year, we’re back in London with an exciting, emerging talent in the British Music Scene.

Please give a warm dHarmic Evolution artist welcome to emaé!

 

As an independent artist, emaé has already gained recognition and support from prominent music institutions as Serious Live (London Jazz Festival), Help Musicians UK, h Club London and is most recently a recipient of the widely coveted PRS for Music #WomenMakeMusic grant.

 

Let’s find out more about emaé, her journeys, her experiences, her future aspirations, and her amazing music. Her featured songs “Away from Here” and “Over” will surely captivate your heart. Strap up your seatbelts as we visit London with emaé, here in this episode of the dHarmic Evolution!

Quotes:

14:11

“That was kind of my encouragement to myself, that no matter what I'm going through, I'm never so far removed that I can't find my way back.“

 

20:25

“I think my ultimate goal will always be to be able to support myself fully from music.”

 

26:27

“The lyrics have always been very important to me, just because I feel like I have something to say, I feel like I want to express myself or express a feeling through my songs.”

 

27:28

“I want my music to be able to tell a story that people can relate to and it can translate into some sort of emotion when people listen to it.”

 

50:45

“Know what you want from the industry, number one. Number two, know who you are, and stay true to that. Because I feel like that's when the best music comes out – when you have the certainty of who you are, you're able to write from a place of truth and in a place where the music means something, it can then stand on its own.”
