ABOUT EMILY REID

QUOTES:
"With an eye for hooky Sara Bareilles-esque melodies and a penchant for sprinkling in handclaps, snaps, and a bit of glockenspiel, Reid writes the kind of songs that are both unapologetically honest and unashamedly catchy."

“This girl definitely has an interesting voice. I say BUY IT (the album) if you like alt-pop singers who bring something new to the table.”
