Launceston Folk Club presents: Emily Slade

Emily Slade is an outstanding acoustic guitarist, singer-songwriter from North Hertfordshire. The partnership between her enchanting voice and intricate guitar playing are rarely found in one person, making Emily a captivating performer. Her debut album ‘Shire Boy’ led to a BBC Radio 2 Folk Award nomination, and she now tours as part of the Phil Beer Band.

Emily took up the acoustic guitar at the age of nine, making her stage debut that same year. At 19, Emily studied English and Education at Cambridge University. During her final year she launched her record label ‘Rustic Thorn Records’ to release a five track EP, ‘Small Talk’, and took to the road. Touring internationally, Emily has carved out a staggering reputation amongst audiences and fellow musicians alike.

Emily is widely hailed as an intelligent contemporary British songwriter. Her songs approach modern day issues, relating to real people. She is a woman quite clearly at ease with her audience. Her winning personality and presence have endeared her to audiences on both sides of the Atlantic. In an age where everyone seems intent on copying everyone else, it’s gratifying to find an individual who sounds solely like herself.
