Wow beautiful voice, great video

[@joannegervais]

. Talented Miss Emily has put together a timely video with layers of sound that uplift the soul through the visual greyness of the pen's background. Her powerful voice carries the message of hope and freedom against the battles of injustice.

[@TheMissEmily]

Thank you so much! Thrilled that you were able to take part.

I haven't been more blown away by a voice here in town since I first moved here 20+ years ago and came across Georgette Fry at Brandy's. Unfortunatly, I don't have (and never will have) iTunes - is there anywhere I can buy your music? I didn't see anything on your website.

[@TheMissEmily]

Thanks for the kind words! We absolutely do sell hard copy CDs. Please email: [e-mail] to arrange purchase. There might still be some hard copies at "Now and Then" in the Cataraqui Town Centre in Kingston as well. :)
