EMYLA delivered an absolutely stunning performance at my 60th birthday celebration—an evening that was already filled with love, laughter, and reflection, but was elevated to an entirely new level of beauty and sophistication through her artistry. With a meticulously curated setlist crafted specifically for the occasion, EMYLA wove together a musical experience that felt both deeply personal and universally captivating. Her voice—fluid, powerful, and richly emotive—held the entire room in a kind of gentle reverence. The highlight for many was her breathtaking rendition of “Volare,” originally made famous by Italian legend Domenico Modugno. EMYLA’s interpretation—sung in fluent Italian—was nothing short of mesmerizing. She infused the classic with grace and charm, transporting us all to the romance of a distant place and time. It was a moment that left many with chills and brought spontaneous applause from the crowd. From there, she shifted with ease into the sultry, contemporary groove of “Lost in Japan,” offering a performance that was incredibly elegant and full of nuance. Her tone, phrasing, and presence made it feel like the song had been written for her voice alone. And just when we thought we had seen the full range of her talent, EMYLA lit up the evening with a high-energy, pitch-perfect performance of “Any Way You Want It” by Journey. Her vocals soared, her charisma filled the room, and she had guests dancing, clapping, and completely immersed in the joy of the music. EMYLA didn’t just perform—she told a story, created a mood, and gave us all a musical experience that was intimate, vibrant, and masterfully delivered. It was an intricate and unforgettable performance—one that will be remembered as one of the most cherished highlights of the evening. Brava, EMYLA. You turned a special night into something truly magical.

We had Emyla over in the desert for a pre wedding party with about 100 people. The desert heat was out of control and our event was outdoors. Emyla was able to deliver a magical performance for a couple of hours despite of the conditions being difficult. Many of our guests were raving about how good her performance was with a few people saying comments like "I thought it was music from the radio until I saw it was a live performance" and "she's amazing, beautiful voice". My wife loved her original songs, make sure to ask for them. Thank you Emyla for making our special night spark! with your live music! I highly recommend to ask her for her keyboard performance!

Emyla was just wonderful with my 9 year old daughter and her singing lessons. She had landed her first singing gig and wanted to prepare. Emyla was prompt to answer, schedule and weekly was prompt. She worked with her 6 months and she was very prepared and really helped my daughter find her voice. She is incredibly professional and really know, lives and understand music and music theory. Recommend her over and over again and will definitely work with her in the future.
