Artist Bio:
Emily's style is commonly described as a guitarist taking the lead much like Jimmy Page, Jimi Hendrix, and Warren Haynes. She currently performs as an exciting solo experience, along with her explosive drummer, Kyle Hughes, while looping her instruments and creating a rock n roll drama that unfolds before the audience’s eyes and ears. She has toured the USA and been a featured performer at festivals, clubs, business conferences, and private events.
She began playing violin at age eleven and has been an unstoppable force since. Awarded a scholarship in Violin Performance, Emily studied Classical music, Theory and Composition, and World Percussion music (African and Brazilian) at Cal State Long Beach. Emily’s love for Rock and Roll, and Blues music began to show when she would sit in with musicians at venues in the Los Angeles and Orange County area. This led to performing both as a solo and side musician for over 15+ years now.

Most recently, Emily V was a featured artist for the sixth annual “Rock To Recovery” benefit concert, performing along side Miyavi Ishihara, Sonny Mayo (Hed PE, Snot), Wes Geer (Korn), and Acey Slade (Dope, Murderdolls) to name just a few.
