Emaline Delapaix approached me last week with an offer for a giveaway. The timing was perfect because one of the giveaway sponsors I had for the 12 days of Christmas fell through. I think sometimes the Universe collides and makes wonderful things happen. This was one of those moments.
I took some time perusing Emaline’s sites and listening to samples of her music. All of it is right up my alley. Her voice is hauntingly beautiful and the music sounds like something you’re all ready familiar with, but only because it really speaks to the soul.
More about Emaline: Emaline is an Australian vegan singer, composer and musician who lives between rural Western Canada and Germany with her big orange cat Reece. She spends a lot of time writing odd folk pop for piano, acoustic guitar and harp and sometimes whatever else she has lying about the place. Some say she sounds a little like Kate Bush or Tori Amos, but she also loves a lot of Scandinavian music: music that invokes the weather like storms and warm sunsets. Emaline will be recording her first full length record between Berlin, London and Canada in winter 2013/2014, experimenting with sounds and space, the weather and environment, this CD will be her most ambitious yet with an expected release date of Spring 2014 including European, North American and Australian tour dates.
She travels a lot and says that being vegan can be tough on the road but it’s possible. She’s living proof! She also gives a small % of CD sales to local animal charities via online sales and concerts.
Her CD’s are self recorded with her guitarist and then handmade and using recycled card and eco friendly inks.
Emaline has generously offered a music download of her latest album, Between Breeding Seasons to THREE lucky winners.

Perfect for a quiet winter day. Listening on her website- kind of reminds me of Edie Brickell a bit too. Like a Joni/Tori/Edie… or just Emaline. 🙂
