Music Genres
Jazz
Emily Masser is a young jazz singer and saxophonist from Wigan. She studied at London’s Guildhall School of Music and before that at Manchester’s famous Chetham’s School of Music. Emily was also given invaluable guidance in jazz by her father, the highly respected saxophonist Dean Masser.
She gained attention and encouragement from jazz luminaries Claire Martin and Liane Carroll - high praise indeed. Her acclaimed album, "Introducing Emily Masser" also showcases her arranging skills, taking classic jazz standards such as “So Near So Far” and “The Man I Love” and making them sound newly minted and excitingly different.
Emily’s single, "I’m Old Fashioned" captures her strengths as an arranger and vocalist as well as her terrific scat singing. Her performance on this recording draws on influences and inspirations such as Annie Ross, Betty Carter, and Sonny Stitt and has already picked up the attention of reviewers, magazines and radio broadcasters.
“New Star of British Jazz.” "A burning talent for the future." - London Jazz News.
"Young vocalist Emily Masser is one of the most original and distinctive musicians to emerge on the current British scene." - Jazzwise.
"Masser shows her excellent vocal skills and then seals the deal with a scat solo to die for." Jazz Views.
