Granddaughter of a trucker and a coal miner Emily Zuzik hails from Southwestern Pennsylvania. She gave her first public performance singing Dolly Parton's "9 to 5" to her fifth grade religion class in Catholic school. By eighth grade she was performing original work in front of her school. From this encouragement she began composing original songs and performing publicly in high school and college. And the rest as we say, is history...
A proud Epiphone Guitars endorsed artist and 2005 calendar girl Emily released her debut solo album The Way it's Got to Be in February 2003, which received praises from NYC's The Village Voice and Time Out as well as Performing Songwriter Magazine's Top DIY Picks November 2003. Emily has been featured in publications such as ICON Magazine GO! NYC Magazine and Women Who Rock Magazine. Emily's song "That's the Way" was a semi-finalist in the JANE Magazine Readers compliation in 2004 and also appeared as one of IGN for Men's "Babe of the Day".
She has shared the stage with such performers as Holly Figueroa (CAKE Records) Jon Dee Graham (New West Records) Jolie Holland (ANTI), Tracy Bonham (Rounder/Zoe), Johnny Dowd (Munich Records) Jennifer Marks (Bardic Records) Rachael Sage (MPress Records) and 80s teen pop icon Tiffany.
Emily has performed both solo and with many bands including acoustic roots rockers Sexfresh Babes with Beats, the Burning Man phenomenon Funkmobile 70s classic rock tribute group Southern Frost and San Francisco WAMMIE-awarded Shitty Shitty Band Band. Additionally she has contributed backing vocals for such acts as Will Hawkins Tom Glynn, The Muscatels, Jeff Winter and Pi. She plays regularly in the NYC scene and tours nationally annually.
Currently Emily is recording her second album with producer Joshua Kessler (The Bravery Erica Cashman) at Bushwick Studio and planning a tour for the UK in Fall 2005.

She is also the Events Coordinator for showcases and special events of Womanrock.com. She is also co-founder of sirenswildride a nationally touring collective of female singer-songwriters. In addition to this she is a performing member of Folk Alliance and Songwriter's Hall of Fame.
Emily's songs have been featured on Alice Artist Spotlight on 97.3 FM in San Francisco KUSF's "Radio Segue," KOOP's "Soul Talk Radio with Chuck Freeman," and KUT's "Femme FM." The video for her song "Try a New Line on Me" airs regularly on the Austin Music Network and aired nationally on the Trio Network to over 18 million households. |
