VDC #103 Emma Russel

Well it’s been a while since I have had on an old Lister friend, which felt like it was becoming a staple of the podcast so today we rectify that with my good friend Emma Russell! Not only is Emma a bad ass rock star but she is also a nurse currently doing a rural nursing stint in her adopted home of Newfoundland! It was great to hear all about where Emma’s obsession with Newfie’s came from, how her new home is welcoming her as well as her hopes and dreams for the future. We mostly talked music and old stories and catching up on how far her musical journey has come since she first showed me the few songs she could play on guitar all those years ago back in residence. I always knew Emma had a great voice and could shred a piano but since then she has evolved so much as an artist and has really grown into the rockstar she always (loudly) proclaimed herself to be! Check out her Instagram linked below to see her play as well as her band sound system to see some of the live performances we chatted about in the podcast and lastly the novascotibales band Emma speaks so highly of!
