EmiSunshine

Rolling Stone named 19-year-old EmiSunshine among “10 New Country Artists You Need to Know,” but she is more than country. With music described as “old-timey,” the East Tennessee native adds her own unique contemporary blend of roots music that is equal parts Americana, Bluegrass, Gospel, Blues and Jazz. Critics have compared her to a young Janis Joplin, Iris Dement and Dolly Parton. EmiSunshine has been attracting national attention since she was nine years old, with appearances on “The Today Show,” NBC’s “Little Big Shots,” “Pickler & Ben,” the Grand Ole Opry (14 times) and elsewhere. In 2018, she was featured in the Grammy-nominated motion picture “The King,” for which she wrote and performed two original songs—“Johnny, June and Jesus” and “Danny Ray." With loyal fans numbered in the millions, EmiSunshine has been praised by the likes of Loretta Lynn, Emmylou Harris, Tim McGraw, Ricky Skaggs, Marty Stuart and The Grateful Dead, to name just a few. When she is not on tour, Emi divides her time between Nashville and her home in East Tennessee, frequently collaborating with a host of top singer/songwriters like Jeffrey Steele, Leslie Satcher, Jim Lauderdale, Leslie Satcher, and others. In 2020, she even wrote and recorded the song "Starz" with Grammy-winning funk music legend Bootsy Collins to benefit the Recording Academy's MusiCares COVID-19 Relief Fund. EmiSunshine's latest album, "Sideshow," will be released on October 6, 2023.
