About

Musical Stylings

 Solo singer-songwriter, Emily Roff, shares her original songs with the audience, while also intertwining unique cover versions from classic and current artists alike. Some of Emily's musical inspirations are Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald, Bonnie Raitt, Jackson Brown, Jason Mraz, Sheryl Crow, Jack Johnson, Colbie Caillat, Amy Winehouse, and more. She is also highly influenced by '70's and 2000's Songwriter Era, as well as the 40's Jazz Era, so you are sure to see several of these songs incorporated into her performance. 


Emily's original music can be characterized as Indie Beach Pop, with Jazzy-Bluesy undertones, and a little quirkiness sprinkled overtop.  She also writes and plays slower Ballads that often show up in the form of thoughtful, melodic vocals with lightly picked guitar, or piano, behind.  Her performance leaves you feeling fulfilled through her eclectic song choices, agile vocals, and multi-instrumentation (piano/guitar/ukulele).


Background and Inspiration

 From an early age, Emily followed her dreams to Music School, and graduated from university with a Bachelor of Music: Voice Performance Degree. She then continued to hone her song writing and performance skills with the talented original and live-music performers of the Tampa Bay Music Scene. Her feet then took her to Texas and New York City, where she gained new insight when working with the talented Indie performers and songwriters that she met along her musical journey. 


Regarding her writing, Emily finds inspiration from the world around her: From life's adventures and hardships, to our beautiful environment. She tries to make her music representative of the human condition through one person's eyes, voice, and heart.

Tampa Bay Times article on Emily Roff, by Peter Baldwin


Emily Roff is a "Pixie-tiny but massive-voiced Bradenton singer Emily Roff is all about barefoot beach pop in the vein of Jack Johnson, Jason Mraz and Tristan Prettyman - although she's not afraid to delve into Sublime-like roots-reggae jams like Authority Zero's One More Minute. Her vocal range and prowess on the acoustic guitar are worth the price of admission at any beach bar." https://www.tampabay.com/archive/2010/03/19/singer-songwriters/
