Granddaughter of a trucker and a coal miner, Emily Zuzik hails from Southwestern Pennsylvania. She gave her first public performance singing Dolly Parton’s “9 to 5” to her fifth grade religion class in Catholic school. By eighth grade, she was performing original work in front of her school. From this encouragement, she began composing original songs and performing publicly in high school and college. And the rest, as we say, is history…
Emily recently released her second album, You Had Me At Goodbye, produced with Joshua Kessler at Bushwick Studio (The Bravery, Erica Cashman). Two CD Release Parties to packed rooms in September 2006—Thurs.
