About Emellia.
ABOUT EMELLIA
Emellia is a full-time vocalist, singer-songwriter and live performer from the Isle of Wight, with a love for big vocals, soulful sounds and music that makes people feel something. Performing 300+ gigs a year across the Isle of Wight and the UK, Emellia has built a busy and varied career doing what she loves most - performing live. From intimate acoustic sets and luxury weddings to high-energy party nights, corporate events, festivals, holiday parks, private celebrations, restaurants, pubs and care homes, she has experience performing for just about every kind of audience and occasion. Her performances can be tailored to suit the event, whether you’re looking for laid-back background music during dinner, a soulful acoustic set, or a full-blown party atmosphere that gets everyone on their feet. With a repertoire spanning soul, Motown, pop classics and feel-good favourites, Emellia brings big vocals, personality, energy and plenty of audience interaction to every show.
Over the years, she has performed at an incredible range of venues and events, from regular residencies and local favourites across the Isle of Wight to larger stages and events further afield. Her work has taken her to The Isle of Wight Festival, The Great Escape Festival, Fort Lauderdale Yacht Show in Florida, Amsterdam and the Thames, where she performed aboard an Uber Boat for a special event.
Her relationship with TikTok has also become a huge part of her journey. Alongside regularly live streaming and performing for her online community, Emellia has performed at The Great Escape Festival as part of TikTok Live, as well as performing aboard an Uber Boat on the Thames for a TikTok event. With her live music and live streaming careers continuing to grow alongside one another, she is also set to take things international once again with an upcoming performance in Madrid for TikTok. But live performance isn’t the only side of Emellia’s music career.
Alongside performing hundreds of shows each year, she is also an original artist and songwriter, writing and releasing music under the Emellia name. Her original music explores the honest, relatable and sometimes darker sides of life, combining personal storytelling with catchy hooks and modern pop production. Her songs are inspired by real experiences, real emotions and the things people often think but don’t always say out loud.
For Emellia, music has never just been about standing on a stage and singing songs. It’s about creating a moment. It’s about the room full of people singing the same chorus, the couple dancing to their first song, the festival crowd shouting the words back, or someone discovering one of her original songs and thinking, “I’ve felt exactly that.” What started as a dream of simply being able to make a living from music has grown into a full-time career performing hundreds of shows every year, working with brands and events, building an online community and continuing to develop her own music as an artist. And she’s only getting started.
Whether she’s performing at a wedding, bringing a private party to life, entertaining a festival crowd, providing music for a corporate event, performing at a venue, live streaming to her online community or releasing an original song, Emellia’s aim is always the same: Make people feel something. Make them sing. Make them smile. And, most importantly, have a time that they will remember.
