=======================
We�ve wanted our next guest to play her own show at High Tea for years, but between radio, touring and hopping between Sydney and Nashville, we�ve had to wait in line! So we�re more than a little excited that our turn has arrived, and we can welcome the wonderful Emma Swift to High Tea.

Emma is an ARIA nominated songwriter and radio broadcaster (Double J, FBi) who splits her time between Sydney, Australia and Nashville, Tennessee. A fan of minor chords, heartworn highways, scuffed-up boots, gin and endless pedal steel, she likes to play vulnerable music. Her heroes, in no particular order are: Emmylou Harris, Gram Parsons, Bill Callahan, Anais Nin, Lucinda Williams and whoever invented dry shampoo. Emma Swift's debut mini album was released in Australia in 2014.

�Swift has created a dreamy intoxicated world where the heavy-lidded noir crawl of bands like Mazzy Star and Spain co-exist with late-night honky tonk bars, tear-stained sheets and flickering neon signs.� � Chris Familton, Post To Wire

�Too quiet, too slow, too tender and too far from the middle of the road? Yeah, probably. Like any of those are bad things.� � Bernard Zuel, Sydney Morning Herald

�Her voice has the right balance of sweetness, sonorousness and just a hint of hard-life huskiness and she delivers classic lyrics with perfect poise� Without reinventing the country sound and without even thinking about any of the current trends, Emma Swift has created something timelessly appealing.� � Chris Cobcroft, 4ZZZ Radio Brisbane

Emma will be joined on the night by a very special guest, and it�s going to all be oh-so-lovely! Hope to see you there.
