“Emily's exquisite, brushed-velvet vocal conjures a steady neck-hair raising waltz” - The Age 

“Strikingly assured” - Rolling Stone Australia

 

“What is it about Lubitz’s voice that makes it so incredibly captivating? Her timbre is otherworldly; hopeful and vulnerable, yet potent.” – Beat Magazine

 

Very few artists can cradle your heart in their hands while they kick your ass, but after more than a decade touring with critically acclaimed indie-folk darlings Tinpan Orange, Emily Lubitz is striding out on her own.

 

Lubitz’s 2022 debut EP ‘Begin Again’ reveals a darkly romantic vision, a thick velvet curtain that backdrops the live experience of a six-foot tall Edith Piaf stalking through the rocks of Laurel Canyon with her band from East Brunswick.

 

Lubitz is a veteran of the scene, having performed on some of the world’s biggest stages and premiere international festivals. She has collaborated with the likes of Paul Kelly, Martha Wainwright, Jen Cloher and the album she recorded with old friend Mama Kin, and yet her solo work is imbued with the raw energy of a breakthrough artist.

 

Emily has undertaken some significant community projects, specialising in a process of using song writing and performance as community-building and healing mediums. Such projects include, the writing and recording of a 10 song children’s album in Arrernte language, Ampe-mape Alyelheme, with artists from Mparntwe/Alice Springs, released in 2023 through ABC Music. Also, the After Disaster project, writing songs with children about their experiences in the 2022 Northern Rivers floods.
