Emily Masser is a 21-year-old jazz singer from Wigan, and currently studying at London’s Guildhall School of Music.
Besides the superb musical education she received at the famous Chetham’s School of Music, Emily was also given invaluable mentorship by her father, respected saxophonist Dean Masser. Emily quickly gained attention and approval from jazz luminaries, leading to her feature on The Clark Tracey Quintet’s debut album, Introducing Emily Masser.
Her breakthrough, however, came with the release of her recent album Songs With My Father, a project dedicated to her late mother. Emily has gone on to tour with her band featuring Matyas Gayer, James Owston, and Steve Brown, showcasing her arrangements and vocals, and further solidifying her reputation as a “new star of British jazz”.
In high demand, Emily and her band are performing at numerous leading jazz festivals and clubs this year, including the Buxton International Festival, Swanage Jazz Festival, Scarborough Jazz Festival, and Southport Jazz Festival, further establishing her presence on the vibrant UK jazz scene.
