Emily Bonn performs original foot stompin' tunes about riots, hollers & highways. Her melodies sprout from traditional cajun, country, western swing and old-time music. As a former member of the critically acclaimed country band, The Whoreshoes, she shared stages with the legendary rockabilly singer, Wanda Jackson, Old Crow Medicine Show and Devil Makes Three. Emily honed her honky-tonk chops performing in San Francisco BART stations, Belgian prisons and at the world-renowned Hardly Strictly Bluegrass Festival 2007.
Her new debut CD, Songs from Alabama Street, features 7 new original tunes. Many talented SF Bay Area musicians contributed to the recording such as members from The Whoreshoes, The Brother Comatose, Culhann's Hounds, The Lariats, Cheetahs on the Moon, and Middle Maki. Check these bands out -- they all rock!
