Emily continues to draw on her talent as one of the finest interpreters of traditional song in the UK presenting an album that is unshakeably Scottish but with farther, wider horizons. New settings of time worn texts weave beautifully alongside contemporary covers blurring the borders of old and new.<\/p>\n
Having celebrated a decade as one of Scottish music\u2019s most distinctively sublime voices, Emily Smith begins a fresh chapter in her illustrious, award-winning, TV-appearing career.<\/p>\n
For her fifth solo album Echoes, Emily returns to her first love of traditional song. Her gift for finding a personal connection in these passed-down, anon-penned words is still at the heart of her craft. But this is a bold new phase in Emily\u2019s music and with it comes what she describes as \u201ca new Scottish sound\u201d.<\/p>\n
Recorded over the space of a year (interrupted by the arrival of a small person) Echoes expands the core group of musicians with whom she\u2019s previously played by adding a guestlist of true greats.<\/p>\n
