Noise Pop: Emily Afton, Lapel (Double Album Release!)

Emily Afton’s voice is transporting. Deep and smoky, Emily delivers her emotive and honest songs from a place that feels lodged in the past, rooted in a dreamy barefoot era. You can hear the Georgian lineage on her mother’s side, conjuring a Southern swamp, mixed with urbane pop relevance. Oakland indie-rock meets an after-hours quest for mischief, with ribbons of soul and electro-pop interwoven.
