Emilie Lierre Featured Artist

_ 07/october/2022_

Emilie Lierre’s low-toned, soulful, singing voice has a truly commanding presence. Backed up by the alluring chimes of her trustee Ukulele, the charisma that exudes from Emilie’s performances is truly electrifying!

A broken down relationship and a yearning to wander the earth lead Emilie Lierre to Australia where she busked to make a living and explored the southern hemisphere for 2 years. Appearances on ABC and Triple R radio in Melbourne gave her the confidence to pursue her musical dream and record an 8 track album on her return.

A nomad by nature, Emilie was born in Manchester, brought up in Portsmouth, but comfortable anywhere. Lierre's debut album The Wanderer takes the listener on a journey of their own through her thoughts on life, love, and the world around us.

Until now these 8 original songs have only ever been

heard live or on the streets. And whilst a ‘full band’

album is in the works, our introduction to Emilie

Lierre is a purely acoustic album featuring nothing

but a lightly strummed Ukulele and Emilie’s

trademark deep soulful singing voice. Each song is

recorded in just one take, stripped back to the way it

was originally intended.

This is an honest recording in every sense, portraying

the message that Emilie’s music is made with purpose

rather than frivolity or exuberance. And the results are

beautiful!

The debut single, Extraordinary was released

everywhere on 26th August and kicked off Part 2 of our

Summer Singles series, celebrating the 1st year

anniversary of the label.

The closing line states “One day you’ll see it’s me that’s

extraordinary” and perhaps this sums up how we feel

about Emilie Lierre better than anything we could

possibly write here.

We’re certain you’ll agree!
