Emily King
media release: GRAMMY-nominated singer Emily King is embarking on her North American Special Occasion Tour in May.
Emily will be performing songs from her highly anticipated album, Special Occasion, her first album in 4 years following her GRAMMY-nominated Scenery. Across 11 tracks, King shares a real-time exploration of the endless dimensions of heartbreak. King and longtime producer Jeremy Most (Grammy-nominated producer and multi-instrumentalist) closely collaborated on every track for an enchanting look at the ways we love, grieve, and eventually stumble toward a greater sense of self-understanding. You can listen to the previously released singles “This Year,” which KCRW named one of their Top Tunes, and “Medal” now.
She will be performing at The Barrymore Theatre on May 12 in Madison.
"Her most open body of work to date, the record’s progressive pop sounds blend elements of soul and R&B in a way only she can" - Notion
"'This Year' [is] an absorbing track punctuated by emphatic beats and King’s densely emotive lyricism" - Grimy Goods
