Emily Scott
Edinburgh-based ukulele and classical string trio; eclectic bittersweet balladry, lush vocals, and sweeping, filmic orchestration. Singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Emily writes poetic lyrics and odd-ball string compositions; on stage she's joined by Kate Miguda (violin), Rik Evans (viola) and Pete Harvey (cello); a must-see genre-mashing thing of beauty!
"whimsical, charming folk-pop with buckets of soul and unexpected melodic twists" (Vic Galloway, Radio1 Scotland). "quietly magical" (Boomkat). "The kind of softly trimmed sepia that suggests her vocals have been prised from a slab of 78rpm shellac" (losingtoday.com)
