Emma Louise Takes 5 with before and after
Shownotes
In the fifteen years since Emma Louise wowed us with her debut single 'Jungle', she’s shown all sides of herself, singing her story with vulnerability and reflection.
Last year, Emma released the collaborative album Dumb with producer Flume. But it’s been 8 years since her last solo album, the daring and romantic Lilac Everything.
This week, she returns with Sunshine for Happiness, an album that was actually recorded in 2019. Emma Louise joined Zan to talk more about the changes in her life between recording and release and to share her song selections in the theme of 'Before and After'.
Emma Louise's song choices:
- Paul Simon – Still Crazy After All These Years
- Nick Drake – Pink Moon
- Bruno Mars – Versace on the Floor
- Dijon – The Dress
- Alice Coltrane – Govinda Jai Jai
