Heeney deserves to be compared to the early -'90's pop masters. Her songs are simple but drenched with emotion; it's uncomplicated pop, beautifully sung. - Jeff Jenkins MAG

Hi Emma, we've never met. I'm a guitar player. I'm friends with Bedge. We're in a band together called The Wilson Pickers. I've got a new solo album called :"Dominoes": I'm launching it at the Wesley Anne this Friday night 25th. Bedge is going to play. So is Sime Nugent. I'm hoping you know these people otherwise you'll probably think I'm crazy.
Anyway, I'd love it if you cam along. It'll be fun, lots of booze and all that stuff.
