Emily Duff

Called the perfectly cool combo of Lucinda Williams meets Patti Smith, Emily Duff's street-smart poetry and vocal style conjure moods & images that seduce the listener to visit emotional vistas that entice and beguile.

Her small batch brand of Sweet & Sour Rock & Roll with a great big hit of Country Soul, digs deep, weaving a patchwork of sin, tragedy, romance and regret. A humble servant of song as well as a dark optimist, Emily is a prolific and unique voice at a crazy & crucial time. Born in Flushing Queens, NYC and raised by a pack of cigarettes, her Mama taught her four perfect chords and then ran off, leaving Emily to figure the rest out on her own. Emily has recorded and released 5 records in the past 6 years. Two at FAME, the legendary Muscle Shoals, Alabama studio, one at NY Noise and two with producer, Eric “Roscoe” Ambel at his Brooklyn studio, Cowboy Technical Services.

From the stage of CBGB’s — where she played her first show — to the confines of her 340 square foot Greenwich Village tenement apartment where she is happily raising her two teenage children and hound dog with her husband. Duff presently has three records in production with three very talented and very different producers. All are “modern records” inspired by classic American roots music, with Duff upholding her status as a genre-bending, story-telling, humble servant of song.

“Emily Duff to me will be the torchbearer for this generation, following the likes of Emmylou Harris and Lucinda Williams.” (Maximum Volume Music).
