'Like toasted marshmallows over a campfire, singer-songwriter Emily Soon will warm your heart. Melbourne-born and raised, her music illuminates the universal human emotions from stories inspired by travel, newfound independence and profound changes in life. Emily’s soothing, velvety voice almost reminiscent of Tracy Chapman, Norah Jones or Bonnie Raitt will leave you serenaded and mesmerised. 2020 has seen Emily take on new heights with her soaring single ‘Love is The Loneliest Place’, followed by an alternate version featuring Invictus Quartet. Despite changing plans in unprecedented times – including the postponement of an ambitious performance with the quartet at Melbourne Recital Centre – she has embraced collaborating remotely on a mixture of projects. Captured in a humble home studio, her latest release showcases Whitney Houston’s iconic ‘I Wanna Dance with Somebody’ in a personal and emotional new light.' (https://peril.com.au/author/emily-soon/)
