"One of my finds here at the end of the year—her name is Emily Arin. She's one of the most interesting new song writers I've come across in a while." -Vin Scelsa, legendary DJ and host of Idiot’s Delight on WFUV

Luke Z. Fenchel of The Ithaca Journal writes: "Not to be missed Montour Falls singer and songwriter who is one part Jana Hunter, one part Richard Swift and one part Lavender Diamond. "White Heat" from Time & Space, the culmination of Arin's 2007 subscription series, burns soft and warm like a kerosene lantern in winter."
New Music Subscription Series is Back:
Emily Arin is now taking subscribers for her 3rd New Music Subscription series which can be purchased on the Store page of her website www.emilyarin.com. If you are new to the idea, the subscription includes receiving one newly written and recorded song each month over the course of six months. Each song is sent as an mp3 via email with a story behind the song. The beauty of the project is that each subscriber plays an active role in producing new work in the world--a unique way to act as a modern day patron of the arts.
The $15 for the 3rd series is additionally helping provide free music lessons on both piano and guitar over the six month series to seven students in Schuyler County, New York--the northern-most county in Appalachia where Emily currently resides. The monthly emails will include an introduction to the students and updates on their inspirations and progress as young musicians.
Signing up is a great way to support independent music--and it's fun! A surprise in your inbox every month! (Also popular as a thoughtful, green and affordable gift for a music-loving friend.)
Note: Signing up after the series has begun still entitles you to all previously released stories and songs.
Time and Space:
Emily Arin's album Time and Space (the result of her 1st New Music Subscription Series) is available on here via SnoCap, her website, iTunes and CD Baby.
As an independant musician that we respect, we wanted to give you a copy of our last album. We are finishing up our new ablum and trying to get an idea of which songs stand out from our last EP. If you have time to check it out and tell us which songs you dig that would be great. If you don't have time we understand.
Respectfully,
Ryan and Chris Half Moon Tuesday.
