Emily Elbert

Emily Elbert weaves together a blend of folk-inspired introspection and soulful celebration. With a D.I.Y spirit, she has carried her music around the world, playing over a thousand independent shows from Peru to Palestine. Anchored by what L.A. Weekly calls a “funky, engrossing groove,” the publication notes, “Elbert would be considered remarkable just for her guitar playing, which segues from hard-edged funk and blues to more gently subtle jazz intricacy. But she’s an equally adept vocalist, weaving her soulful phrasing nimbly within the rhythms of her guitar chords.” Emily’s reverence for the power of music shines through in her progressive songwriting and heartwarming live performances.

In addition to her work as a solo artist, Emily has played in the bands of artists including Grammy-winning Jacob Collier, Sara Bareilles, Leon Bridges, Esperanza Spalding, Lorde, Gwen Stefani, and Jenny Lewis. She will release her sixth album, “Woven Together,” in summer 2022.
