I'd seen Emma perform and I really liked her

very accessible to a whole range of audiences.

To get your musical bearings, think of a
more irreverant version of Ani DiFranco, shift things into
high gear, and there you have Emma Wall. (Wall's) blend of
infectious power-folk, combined with Wall's searingly powerful
vocals and playful stage demeanour, had the crowd grooving in
unison through her impressive set.
David St. Pierre, Orcasound, Montreal, Canada

Don't miss the vibrant live performance of
Emma Wall. Emma's soaring vocals will captivate you and the
powerful songwriting will keep you hooked.
Emily Hayes, 3CR Radio
In a scene crowded with
female singer-guitarists, one has to be particularly unique to
stand out from the rest. Happily, Wall achieved this
aplomb. Wall's strengths lie in her versatility, her
sweet, distinctive voice and her memorable songs. As time goes
by she continues to impress as her confidence and songwriting
capabilities mature. Among distinguished company she held her
own, captivating the audience in the process.
Live Review, Addicted to Noise, Melbourne
Emma Wall is another young and talented
Melbourne performer; blessed with an exceptional vocal
quality, pure and natural ... She writes some thoughtful
lyrics and her original tunes contain some knock out hooks and
melodies.
John McAuslan, Director, Brunswick Music Festival
A pure, beautiful voice, strong lyrics and melodies
take you effortlessly through emma wall's two albums. Emma's
confident guitar work alternates between driving rhythms and a
softer touch. Whether solo or with a full line-up, emma is
absolutely fab live on air or at her shows.

CD REVIEWS
Beautifully harnessed beats,
instrumentation and melodic feel of the album... elastic
rhythm, voice and arrangements are clear, light and uplifting,
cunningly boast lyrics which are in fact dense and at times
both poignant and world weary... charting her emotional highs
and lows and then evolving mantras to chronicle personal life
lessons.
Carrie Oakey, 3MDR 97.1FM 'Sneak' review
It's great to hear a fresh new Australian voice... her
CD is brimming with poppy happiness. Look a bit deeper though,
and her lyrics paint a world that's a little more complex than
the music would otherwise have you believe... every word is
meant and points the way to bright future musical
possibilities.
The Cornstalk Gazette, NSW
Listening to Sneak is like opening the
door to a gentle autumn afternoon. Emma Wall's latest album
beckons the listener to a place where love, inner-self,
mischief, and optimism co-exist, brought together by her fresh
blend of funky urban folk music.
CD Reviews, Lesbiana, Victoria
Emma can sing and
she also writes strong lyrics that just about all of us can
relate to at some point in our lives.She is definitely worth
listening to.
