Emy Reynolds grew up in the small town of Ojai, nestled in the valley just off the coast of Southern California. Her story began in high school, after singing at Carnegie Hall and touring in Germany/Austria with her choir. She was hooked on singing and being on the road. Upon her return, she began writing and almost immediately performing at local venues. Emy became known for her rare low raspy vocal coupled with lyrics of timeless tales. As the winner of Battle of the Bands in Ojai, Emy opened for Brett Dennen and that is where she met, Piper Denney who was in a different band at the time, but soon joined Emy and started performing as a duo. From this event she also met John Adair, President of Emoto Music, a Santa Monica/ Chicago based music licensing company. Emoto had Emy sing on a commercial spot for a nation wide Chevy Traverse commercial. In fall of 2009, Holly Schmidt joined the band, making it a trio of alternative singer-songwriter folk with rich vocal harmonies. Together, they recorded their first EP, Ode to the Stubborn with a friend. With the December 2009 release of the EP, they went on their first West Coast tour reaching Bellingham, WA. In 2010, Emoto had the band perform intimate showcases at advertisement agencies in Chicago, Seattle and San Francisco. In March 2010, as a result of Emy meeting Kasey Truman from Chop Shop Music at a Hotel Café show, her song, Tonight, was featured on Grey’s Anatomy. Emy has been featured in a PSA covering Peter Gabriel’s song, Mercy Street. Most recently, Best Day ever was in a Payless Commercial. Currently, the band is playing in Ojai, Ventura and LA. They have plans to record a full-length album and go on tour again soon.
