About Emily Popli

Emily has been writing music for over two decades.  Starting as a young poet inspired by Shel Silverstein, elementary school Emily gained a reputation as a kid who would attend Poetry Slams at the local library among angsty teens trying their hand at slam poetry, and sweet older folks reciting pastorals.  She soon began selling love poems to boys in her 5th grade class at 50 cents a pop to give to the girls on whom they had crushes.

Piano lessons happened simultaneously, but for the most part, separately at first. When she found her singing voice in high school, Emily finally began connecting these three loves and creating music of her own.

As a college student, she self-released two full length albums entitled "The Hope" and "Unwholly," which are available on iTunes and Spotify under her maiden name, Emily Henderson.  She has since released an EP entitled "Growing Up" and a single in 2016, "For the Rest of My Life" under the same name, but in spite of this existing discography, we consider "Lilith Fair Kid" a debut for Emily.  For one, it'll be her first music released as Emily Popli, but also this album is a departure from the self-made feel of her previous work into a wholly professional production of what she feels is the most honest and heartfelt songwriting she's done to date.

We can't wait to share it with the world.
