Singer/Songwriter Emma Hill | Zoom Room #49

Singer/Songwriter Emma Hill has been in the Anchorage music scene for almost two decades. Originally from the village of Sleetmute, Emma is also a co-owner of Rage City Vintage and hosts the all-ages songwriter showcase Spenard Song Circle. 

In August, Emma hosted “Eras of Anchorage: An art exhibit honoring the history of the Anchorage music scene.” It featured photography, posters, and audio recordings documenting the city’s musical history.

ATMI producer AJ Yambao sat down with Emma to talk about her career. She spoke about inspiring young people in the Anchorage music scene, mental health advocacy, and the future of Spenard Song Circle.

On our YouTube page, you can see full videos of Emma performing her songs "We Are We (Fur Babies)" and "Wild Ride."
