Beautiful- I feel like I'm under water when I listen to her"- Nabihah Iqbal, BBC 6 Music
Emily Magpie is an artist, multi-instrumentalist and producer from Bristol creating dream pop delving into different dimensions. Her recent EP 'She' on Def Pressé has been championed by Tom Ravenscroft, Deb Grant, Nabihah Iqbal and Emily Pilbeam on BBC 6.
On her album recently released on Def Pressé, Emily's lyrics take us on a journey of self-reflection into the subconscious; deep desires and fears spill forth with a dream-like hue and razor sharp vulnerability. Her production is a mirror to this with raw, textured electronic and organic sounds which shape shift into a myriad of unique atmospheric alt-pop landscapes. Drawing inspiration from artists such as Anna Wise, Sylvan Esso and Anna B Savage as well as philosophy, literature and nature Magpie takes the listener on a journey that is both otherworldly and relatable.
