Emily Jones
https://owltextures.bandcamp.com
Emily Jones plays surreal, melodic songs, always aiming at beauty, no matter how awkwardly.
Expect to hear about a marsh spirit falling out of love with the enchanter who conjured her, an ice cream seller with terrible personal hygiene, and an inventor who fashions deadly, glittering robot birds. Most of her songs are about dust and bees though.
“Particularly lovely romantic folk narratives with a dark-woods chill of pastoral melancholy.” – Andrew Male, MOJO (reviewing the album The Book of the Lost)
“Her roots go through that line of literary Englishness…lost and lovely psych, with Jones’s marvelous voice a wraith-like presence that is both childlike and ageless.” – Dave Thompson, Goldmine Magazine (reviewing the album Autumn Eye)
