Singstress Emilia Sisco performs retro soul and blues with deep passion and voice and she has been acknowledged widely during the last few years especially in the local scene.
The Finnish Blues Awards chose her as the best newcomer of 2017, and her critically acclaimed debut album You Ain’t Heard was released one year after that. This has paved way for Emilia Sisco and her band to perform all over Europe.
Musically Emilia Sisco is about mixing together Afro-American jazz traditions, modern arrangements and retro soul. On her latest single “Don’t Believe You Like That” she collaborated with the famous Cold Diamond & Mink, and it was published by the distinguished Timmion Records.
Emilia Sisco will be highlighting the Elephantasy evening by performing together with her 9-piece band including authentic funky horns as well!

The blues roots grow surprisingly deep in the Finnish music scene. From this fertile ground rises singer Emilia Sisco, who debuts on Timmion with her phenomenal single "Don't Believe You Like That". With her strong background in fusing blues, r&b and jazz, Emilia apparently slips also nicely into the dark soulful grooves of Cold Diamond & Mink. 
In "Don't Believe You Like That" Emilia sets herself into the role of a mistreated lover, who still tries to see a speck of hope in the doomed relationship. By dubbing herself, and accompanying the lyric with graceful harmonies, she succeeds in building a powerful beat ballad, that should appeal to the darker end of the dance floor.
There's a special lane in history for soul music this understated. It's cool and intimate at the same time, like there's something dangerous lurking under the surface. So roll up something nice, if that's your thing, and hop along for the ride.
