She has played guitar and sung backup vocals for Lainey Wilson, the 2022 ACM Entertainer of the Year, further cementing her place within the industry as a sought-after talent.
In 2023, Emma’s vocal prowess went viral when her cover of “Talking to the Moon” by Bruno Mars, showcasing her incredible four-octave vocal range, reached over 7 million views. The video helped her amass over 100,000 new followers, adding to her growing fanbase. Her ability to connect emotionally with her audience, coupled with her unique vocal ability, has made her a standout in the country and crossover music scenes.
Now, Emma is co-producing her upcoming project, blending her roots in country with a fresh, modern sound that promises to captivate listeners and push the genre forward.

Marathon Music Works

Sleeping With Sirens Alternative Rock Sleeping With Sirens breathe rarified air. After fourteen years, five studio albums, andthousands of shows, the band has outlasted many of their peers while crafting an undeniablyunique path through modern alternative rock. With each release, the band—Kellin Quinn[vocals], Nick Martin [guitar], Justin Hills [bass], and Matty Best [drums]-continue to hone theirmix of unflinchingly honest lyricism, unforgettable riffs, and pulse-pounding percussion whileboldly exploring new creative frontiers. That future-forward perspective, coupled with a deepconnection to listeners, has established Sleeping With Sirens as a beacon of hope in a worlddesperate to find silver linings.

House &amp; Home Alternative Rock From its inception in a Richmond, VA basement in 2017, House &amp; Home’s goal has remained the same: to reach catharsis in the loudest way possible. Blazing through basements and DIY spaces all around the country, the quartet carved out a path for themselves early on to grow their following and hone their aggressive, yet thoughtful signature sound. Now, numerous nationwide tours in the last few years have given them the opportunity to connect with audiences they never imagined reaching, and they only want more.
House &amp; Home’s 2025 sophomore LP, “I Won’t Look for You” solidifies the band as a force to be reckoned with, showcasing poignant lyricism, intricate and dynamic guitar work, and a driving rhythm section built for banging your head. The lead single, “Swarm,” showcases the nuance and impact the group is capable of packing into a song, while tracks like “Oracle” offer relatable and earnest emotion that listeners can sink their teeth into.
It’s all done with two guitars, bass, drums, and an ethos that can only be learned from cutting your teeth on makeshift stages and garage floors. House &amp; Home brings the energy to fill any room, tear up any stage, and leave an impression on anyone within earshot.<a href="https://eventvesta.com/events/140838/t/tickets" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">View Tickets &amp; More Info</a>
