       An early gig.  "And a-one, and a-two..."

  Performing with Angel City Chorale members Nancy Felixson, Marsha Lovett, and Grainne Ward.

 

Emily's favorite guitar is a splendid Martin D-28, which she saved up for and bought while she was in high school.  Her husband, Dan, was entrusted with getting this most prized possession home after a gig a couple of years ago.  Dan got distracted trying to get their tired son in the car -- and left the Martin on a Los Angeles sidewalk.  He got home, realized what had happened, saw his marriage pass before his eyes, and drove his 1971 Pontiac Firebird three miles in well under two minutes.  Miraculously, the guitar was still there.  Dan has since retired as Emily's roadie.

Another longtime passion of Emily's is painting with a mix of pen, undiluted watercolors, felt markers and colored pencils.
