Growing up in rural North Devon, Emma didn’t discover jazz until the age of 15, and didn’t pick up a tenor saxophone until a year later. She spent her childhood otherwise immersed in folk and classical music.

Emma’s influences range from modern jazz and fusion to folk and soul. Key figures in her musical development include Chris Potter, Ari Hoenig, Kenny Jarrett, Joe Henderson, Chick Corea and more. Her music has a unique sound, ranging from lilting Afro Cuban inspired grooves to hard hitting modern jazz and funk numbers.
