The enchanting one–named 21 year old singer Emmaline, has struck social–media gold, organically amassing hundreds of thousands of social media devotees, with her video versions of timeless classics accompanied by guitarist Ryan Mondak.  Emmaline released her debut EP All My Sweetest Dreams this past September, featuring all original songs played by a stellar group of musicians who were the core of Roy Hargrove’s RH Factor. Her songs are bold in statement and soft in feel, her flow supple and precise. She prides herself in being one who has listened with deep intention to her heroes—Anita O’Day and Billie Holiday, Erykah Badu and D’Angelo—and has already learned to rise above questions of category with a healthy sense of musical identity and forethought.  Emmaline sang guest vocals on Bootsy Collins’ 2019 cover of “Monster Mash” and shared the bill with headliner Chaka Khan in a November 2019 show at the prestigious New Jersey Performing Arts Center (Newark NJ).
