Influenced by her father's Joni Mitchell, Rickie Lee Jones, and Sandy Denny record collection, Emily Barker is an Australian singer/songwriter who came up in the U.K. chamber folk scene. After releasing her debut album, Photos. Fires. Fables., in 2006, her songs "Nostalgia" and "Pause" were used as themes for the BBC crime dramas Wallander (2008-2016) and The Shadow Line (2011), respectively. Following a string of collaborations with the acoustic trio the Red Clay Halo, her diverse third solo LP, 2017 Sweet Kind of Blue, expressed pop and soul influences including Motown and Brill Building pop. Themes of empathy dominated her gentler sixth album, 2024's Fragile as Humans.
