“My songs are my personal life experiences. I wrote Messy when I was completely love-struck by someone who was, in the long run, detrimental to my happiness. I found myself in a situation I could only describe as messy,” shares Emma.

She says music has always been her first love.

“I have a passion for singing and I recently started writing and I love it. I’m able to put my feelings into words and make a beautiful piece out of them,” says Emma.

She says she is excited about the music journey she has started and excited about sharing her music with the world.

“Through my music, I aim to create a space that allows people to feel their emotions in a world where true feelings are suppressed. I want to make people feel the way I feel when listening to good music – nothing heals the heart like a song,” says Emma.
