"Wow! the amazing EMMA KING... what a voice!!! Along with her band 'The Heartsets' she promises to set new standards"
Steve Ancliffe from BigBlueMusic
''Emma King has a great fresh sound for country.
This is not your normal country girl singer, it's better!!!
The US could use an act like Emma King
Very refreshing
I feel she will have a great career ahead of her!!!
Jonathan Sayles /RCA/BNA/ARISTA/Showdog
''Emma King and The Heartsets have graced the stage of The Halfmoon Putney on more than one occasion and never failed to deliver
Highly listenable recordings but no substitute for seeing them live
Emma's voice just shouldn't come from such a diminutive frame but the power is balanced with genuine emotion and real soul that can actually send shivers down your spine
The band are as tight as a drum and it's a real pleasure to see people perform with smiles on their faces!
If you like your Pop a little bit Country or your Country a little bit Rock look no further
You may well regret not seeing them up close and personal while you had the chance''
The Half Moon Putney/London
''Emma King has the most incredible,versatile voice I've ever known to come from a UK artist.

Comparisons with other artists will undoubtebly be made but there is no question as to the unique quality that will make this young artist emerge to major stardom.''

''
Emma without a doubt is the most naturally talented artist I have
worked with. From her flawless live and studio performances to her
amazing stage energy. She can captivate an audience and leave them
begging for more. The world will be hearing much more from this
talented young artist''.
Chad Raymon,
Songwriter,

''Emma King is the biggest breath of fresh air I have heard in a
Country singer in years. Although still very young she has a very
mature approach to and understanding of what makes Country music
special. She effortlessly produces the kind of vocal that New
Country enthusiasts as well as purist listeners want to hear. She
has a very strong work ethic and perfectionist standard that any
label/management company would appreciate in an industry full of
divas and slackers. In a nutshell Emma is lovely, an amazing singer,
an energetic performer and ripe for the picking''

As a Boston radio station said about our first album.........
“This isn't just the best damned drinking album of the year; it's the best damned CD to play before you go out drinking to pump yourself up album of the year”
I reckon it also goes for our live show. So come along one day, see if you can drink us under the table and dance us off of the stage!
Cheers (p.s. the second album is even better!! with free downloads on Myspace)
