Iowa native Emily West moved to Nashville at only 18. Soon after arriving, West landed a record label deal, releasing three singles. She was nominated with Keith Urban for the Academy of Country Music Awards in the category of “Vocal Event of the Year” for their song “Blue Sky.” West got on a plane and found herself auditioning for America’s Got Talent. As a finalist on Season 9, West won crowds over, including judge Howard Stern, with re-imagined versions of songs like the Moody Blues’ “Nights in White Satin” and Sia’s hit,“Chandelier.” Her debut album, All For You, features three original songs co-written by West, including “Bitter,” which has charted in the Top 30 on AC radio. All For You also includes unique covers of “Without You” (David Guetta & Usher), “You Got It” (Roy Orbison) and the songs that made her popular on AGT. West started 2015 with a bang, releasing a video collaboration with YouTube series Postmodern Jukebox, where she performed a version of Kanye West and Paul McCartney’s “Only One.” Shortly thereafter, she was invited to open for Jay Leno on tour. In April, West launched her one woman-show with a multi-city residency tour in New York, Philadelphia, Los Angeles and Chicago. West co-hosted the red carpet at the first American Country Countdown Awards in Nashville. Emily West is an artist that is on the move – and she plays to enthusiastic audiences everywhere.
