PRESENTS:
THE HYPNOTiC SOUND OF ANNALiSE EMERiCK AND HER NEW E.P. STARRY-EYED 
DECEMBER
21, 2011 - On
“THIS LOVE WON'T BREAK YOUR HEART,” one of the brightly
optimistic tracks on ANNALISE EMERICK’s highly acclaimed debut EP, STARRY-EYED,
the Boston based singer-songwriter engages a few bars from “AULD LANG
SYNE” in a tale about spending the perfect New Year’s Eve
among longtime friends whose encouragement and support never fails.
Since moving to New England in late summer 2011, EMERICK has made
countless more never-fail friends and fans thanks to whirlwind slate
of live performances and the immediate success of her seven track
collection, which debuted on the iTunes singer/songwriter chart at #9
its first day. The collection prompted an outpouring of attention
from the national blog scene and a spotlight on CD BABY’s MUSIC
DISCOVERY PODCAST, which assured its listeners: “Fans of Ingrid
Michaelson will feel right at home". EMERICK’s
engaging acoustic driven style and heartfelt, quirky lyrics may find
her right at home among fans of EVA CASSIDY, PATTY GRIFFIN and her
musical idol BRANDI CARLISLE—whose 2010 concert in Nashville
inspired EMERICK to commit to following her truest heart as an
artist. But in many ways the singer is a gypsy, a poet of the people
always restlessly exploring the notion of “home” musically,
emotionally and geographically. She’s claimed many places as
musical lovers, growing up in Austin and Seattle and studying music
at Belmont University in Nashville, where she later recorded her
debut with producer BRAD HILL and top Music City musicians at Hill
Studios.

LUSH holds a BA in Creative Writing from the UNIVERSITY OF
NEW MEXICO. He established ROCKWIRED on New Years of 2004 and hasn't
looked back
since. He is currently the host of all of ROCKWIRED.COM's programming
which includes such shows as ROCKWIRED RADIO PROFILES and ROCKWIRED
FREE FORM RADIO. As
program producer for ROCKWiRED.COM, LUSH is hands-on when it
comes to
interviewing and building a lasting rapport with the artists that come
ROCKWiRED's
way. As a youngster, BRIAN LUSH had no idea what kind of seed was being
planted
by reading magazines such as HIT PARADE, HIGH TIMES, SPIN, REQUEST
(remember
that one?) and even ROLLING STONE. "Those were the days before the
internet and being a rock journalist
looked
like the coolest job imaginable." says LUSH "But reading these
magazines had me
imagining that one day I'd be the artist giving all of the clever
answers to
some poor guy with a tape recorder. Well, life has a way of surprising
you.
Now, I'm the poor guy with the tape recorder and asking all of the
questions."CONTACT
