Emma McGann

Infusing undeniably anthemic pop melodies with brave and beautiful storytelling, British songwriter, award nominated artist and livestreamer Emma McGann has earned BBC Radio 1 airplay, over 11 million views on her livestreams to date and critical acclaim for her alternative approach as an independent artist.

From etching bold lyrics in the back of school textbooks to earning recognition from fierce female forces in the industry, including Kyle Minogue, Nancy Sinatra and Beth Hart, Emma is a shining example of how to rock the boat as a self-made artist in the age of independence.

‘Fantastic!’ – Kylie Minogue

Her journey has seen her earn BBC Radio 1 airplay and features on air and at festivals, become a winner of the MEGS Award in 2018, + nominations for various awards in the U.S. including 3 Shorty Awards and an iHeartRadio Music Award in 2017, a successfully fan-funded album via Kickstarter, well over 11 million views across music livestreams to date, over 4 million views on YouTube… and the journey is far from over.

Embracing her inner-misfit, Emma has passionately carved a non-traditional path of her own as a DIY artist in order to connect and grow her audience in a powerful and meaningful way. Priding herself on breaking down the traditional wall between the artist and the audience, McGann’s TEDx Talk explains the importance of including her viewers and supporters in her journey as a hybrid music artist and online creator.
