Emma-Louise was born in North London in 1982. She first started studying music at the tender age of six attending professional lessons for Violin and piano. After a good 5 years grounding in the rudiments of both these instruments, Emma at age 11 performed her first professional singing engagement. It was in this moment that Emma-Louise realised what it is that she was put on this earth for and she has never looked back since.
