Linda Em - London Irish

Facts Linda Em is a London based, Irish born singer songwriter. Originally hailing from Waterford, Ireland, Linda's family immigrated in to London's East End in the 1980s. Linda first started singing blues and rock 'n' roll in pubs and clubs in her early twenties before meeting Chris Wyatt, with whom she wrote and recorded her first album 'Shadow Lands' in 2015. Her sound has grown to adopt strong elements of Americana and folk noir with an ominous and atmospheric Celtic undercurrent to it and splashes of gospel and soul. Linda Em produces music in an extraordinary mix of influences and genres, blending folk (revisited from a current London / Irish cultural perspective), a bit of rock, Celtic melody and American blues. Her music is timeless, filtering new compositions through the prism of her musical heritage to produce an overall modern day eclectic feel. This EP is the first step in a different direction for Linda, towards a more atmospheric and spacious sound and vocal performance. It is both poetic and storytelling while still being brutally honest and personal. Her pure and raw vocals beautifully convey a nostalgic lyrical narrative, her warm endearing vocals drawing the listener into her musical story telling.
