EMMY was born in Torrance, California, United States on December 14th, 1999. The twenty two year old singer song-writer grew up as an only child in Long Beach, California. Growing up without any siblings, she said, allowed her to become submerged in the arts. Always interested in art in all it forms, EMMY developed a passion for music, and writing. Her father, a music enthusiast born in 1952, passed his taste onto her and she grew up listening to artists such as Barbara Lewis, Betty Everett, Minnie Riperton, Amy Winehouse, and Duffy. She slowly became all consumed in honing in her musical talents, and used her inspirations to help her find her style. Her years of consistent singing and writing since childhood reflect in her outstanding artistic abilities today. EMMY hopes that if anything at all, she can use her calling to help people express their deepest thoughts and feelings, and forget their troubles for five minutes. She describes her voice as a smooth, mysterious combination of technique, and fiery R&B passion.
