Our TapSongz Team always loves finding new talented singer-songwriters as so much of the genre gets gobbled up by EDM (which we do love too). We came across Em Lucia, a talented singer-songwriter out of Phoenix, Arizona, and had the opportunity to dig deeper into her background and learn more about her new EP "Visions".
Since she can remember, music was always a big part of her life and she really only became serious about pursuing it at the end of high school. "Since then, songwriting has really been a key component in finding my voice and identity as an artist and developing new goals for my music," Em told our TapSongz Team. Growing up, Lucia was a huge fan of Adele and Alicia Keys who helped to shape her taste in the industry. "Rufus Wainwright was another artist I grew up listening too, and to me, he is a musical genius; sonically and lyrically, his work is so creative and colorful and genuine", she said.
Fast forward to today and Em has been keeping busy songwriting and creating fresh new music. "I just released my debut EP, called 'Visions'! It is currently available for listening on Spotify, Apple Music, iTunes, SoundCloud, and more!" Our TapSongz Team loved the track "Signs" from the project. The song is a very laidback tune and the guitar and ukeleles fit so well into the melody with Em's gentle voice to top it all off. It reminded me of a very mellow song that could be played in the background of a hit independent movie, like Juno.
We also loved "Running From Goodbyes", a five minute song that is so easy to listen to, a characteristic that we could truly say about each song on the new EP. "This project was my first major endeavor as a new artist, and I think each song captures the journey and growth I experienced throughout the entire songwriting and production process," Lucia said. For being a debut EP, the project turned out extremely well with professional sounds, meaningful lyrics and strong mixing to bring the guitar, production, and vocals all together.
With a couple of originals now out, Em is looking to begin doing local shows in the Phoenix area! Lucia loves attending concerts and the feeling of unity and optimism at shows. "One of my favorite live shows I've been to was John Mayer's. He had sold out an entire arena tour even after taking a few years off of performing, and the entire crowd was filled with people of all ages who value his music."
Heading into 2019, Lucia looks to remain very active in music and progress her songwriting and sound. "My goals are to continue writing (I am hoping to be able to put together a full album at some point moving forward), to perform out, and to hopefully start working with some other artists and producers," Em told our TapSongz Team.
We encourage all of our viewers to stay up to date with Em's music going forward! Be sure to check out her debut EP on all major music platforms! Toss Em a follow on Twitter to support the rising artist from the south. It is certainly an exciting time for Lucia with so much room to grow and develop as an artist as well as giving fans more original music. Our TapSongz Team loved how "Visions" turned out and we can't wait to see what Lucia is able to accomplish next. Here at TapSongz, we thank you for reading this feature article as we continue finding tomorrow's greatest music today!
