/Emily Koko/
Emily Keep on keeping on
Hang in there, don’t quit
To persevere in one’s efforts
Born and raised in a small town in Southern Germany, Emily Koko started writing songs at the age of 13. Another 13 years and two degrees later she is finally spilling the Koko.
As a songwriter-singer she values honest, deep and vulnerable lyricism. In combination with her intriguingly soulful voice, Emily’s sensitive, melodic songs explore identity, relationships and try to make sense of the world we live in.
Channelling inspiration from artists such as Diana Ross, Eva Cassidy, Emeli Sandé & Adele, Emily Koko’s sound is a seamless cross over of pop, soul and R&B.
“Writing songs helps me face emotions and difficult situations in my life. Most of the time I start with
a ‘feeling’. A feeling that becomes a story with a message that needs to be shared.”
