Description
EMILY MAGUIRE
Emily Maguire is an acclaimed singer songwriter whose songs have been played regularly on Radio 2 and has toured with the likes of Don McLean, Eric Bibb and Roddy Frame and Glenn Tilbrook. Originally from London, Emily was classically trained on cello, piano and flute before she discovered Bob Marley, and taught herself to play his songs on the guitar. When a chronic illness left her stuck at home for months on end, she started writing her own songs to pass the time.
Best known for her strong, thought provoking lyrics and supremely expressive vocals (Rock n Reel Magazine), Emilys songs have won her fans across the globe. She released her third studio album Believer in November 2009 to critical acclaim with rave reviews in Uncut, Maverick, Rock n Reel and Guitarist Magazine among others.
The singles Lighthouse Man and Id Rather Be were both playlisted on Radio 2. While her second single Id Rather Be was being played every day on the station at the start of 2010, Emily was touring the country as Artist of the Month for the Caff?ero chain, playing her songs in coffee shops up and down the country. After taking some time out to do more writing, Emily is looking forward to being back on the road again in 2010.
