Emily Yanek

Emily Yanek is discussed in a recent PA Music Scene article:

Whether it’s the combination of the 70’s – 80’s vibe, the tastefully crafted lyrics, or her amazing ability to tell a story with her vocals, Emily has a stripped down purity in her voice.

[...]

Emily has dabbled in playing the guitar but above all else Emily is a piano player. Also, she plays the harmonica as she loves the dynamics that [it] adds when she is playing live. “I guess I missed out on the checkbook-balancing genes,” she joked. Emily is a graduate of the music program at Capital Area School for the Arts.
