Singer and songwriter Emma Sophina's life took a dramatic turn earlier this year. With dreams of finding inspiration for her music, Emma took the long journey to the United States from her home in Perth, Australia. She found inspiration, but not where she or anyone else could have expected to.
A week into her trip, Emma boarded US Airways Flight 1549 from New York to Charlotte to visit some friends. That routine flight quickly turned terrifying. Minutes after takeoff, the plane was struck by birds and lost power in both engines, a seemingly impossible and tragic event. The only thing more impossible was the heroism of Captain Chesley Sullenberger and the crew, who miraculously safely landed the plane in the Hudson River, saving, and changing, the lives of everyone on board. Having been granted the miracle of life a second time, Emma found the inspiration she was looking for, and the result is a five song EP entitled “Wake Up” based on her experience and new outlook on life.
The first song she wrote after the crash, "Send Another Prayer," serves as a thank you to the pilots of that fateful flight. Emma had the opportunity to perform her songs in front of the pilots and many of the crash survivors on national television shows including; The CBS Early Show, Larry King Live and Fox & Friends. Those appearances were seen by several record executives and less than a month after the crash, Emma signed a recording contract with Universal Music Group's Decca Records.
Emma has been hard at work, adjusting to her new life in the Big Apple and recording uplifting and inspiring hits like "Wake-Up," "Miracle" and "Good Morning World," in anticipation of her June EP release.
"I am truly blessed for every extra day I am given here," says Emma. "I have made a dedication to myself to spend the rest of my life working to provide inspiration for others."
