Emma Saunders – Demos

Release Date: Out Now
I love getting music like this.
No fanfare, no bombast and no press bumph, just amazingly refreshing music
without any of the nonsense. London based Emma Saunders has recorded three tracks
that deserve your attention for their effortless cool as much as for their
sweet beauty. Opening track ‘I Fell Alive’ is like a lost Amy Winehouse track
from the sultry, cracked vocals to the music steeped in the melodies and
rhythms of Jewish and Yiddish music, this is soul but with refreshing take.
Second track ‘Everything to Me’ sees Saunders’ voice unfolding further with
those deep, rich tones that bring the likes of latter-day Johnny Cash to mind
as well as Winehouse and Paloma Faith.
Sure, the musicianship is basic
but that’s just a backdrop for that voice – a voice that really ought to be wafting
out of radios, filling the void left by Amy and Adele but with something new to
say. The third and final track is ‘Take My Hand’ with it’s plodding, almost
laboured acoustic notes made perfect by the silken lullaby of Saunders’ soft,
late evening tones weaving in between each note. I don’t know what the plan is
for Emma Saunders but it would be a crime if this was as far as she went with a
voice that can soothe angry Gods and make angels weep tears of joy.
