Emma Jean Oakley
Emma Jean Oakley grew up with music quietly sewn into her childhood, from hearing country songs play through the house to watching Shania Twain perform on TV as a kid. She wrote her first full song in sixth grade about a complicated friendship, and songwriting quickly became the place where she processed heartbreak, longing, and the parts of herself she was still figuring out. Her influences expanded over time, starting with 1990s country and later moving into rock and pop punk, which shaped a sound that blends honest storytelling with a mix of genres. She recorded her debut EP in just seven focused days in Massachusetts with a producer who helped bring her vision to life, and the experience pushed her further into her identity as an artist. Now based in Richmond, she writes music that reflects her history, her growth, and the person she is becoming, always with a clear emotional center that listeners connect to.
