So Good  EP written by Emily B

Also Emily B was nominated for Record Of The Year on Carlow FM where the track ‘So Good’ came fifth out of all the hundreds of thousands of records that have been played on that radio station and Emily B was the first ever artist at Carlow FM ever interviewed.

 

Islington Radio who is also a lover of Emily B’s music i.e. DJ Del (Songbird Sessions) has now requested to do several tracks with Emily B.

 

After finally breaking away from record labels that did not put the time, effort or promotion into her, Emily B decided to walk away from all that negativity. She is now under new management - ‘Thirst Light Springer’ who’s allowing her to express herself musically in many different ways from jazz to rock, pop and dance music and not taking away her name on the tracks that kept her as an unknown.

 

Emily B's tracks 'Ready To Go', 'We Should Be Together', 'Like A Butterfly', 'Always', 'Start Again' and 'Something Out There' reached number 1 organically in the editorial playlist on Boomplay, an African streaming site which has 75 million monthly users. Her tracks 'So Good' and 'Falling'  also featured in the top 5 in editorial playlists!
