FULL BIO in English below short Dutch one:
EMALINE DELAPAIX is een Australische singer/songwriter die, na jaren over de wereld gezworven te hebben, momenteel in Berlijn woont samen met haar dikke oranje poes Reece.
Tussen het intensieve toeren in Europa, Australië en Canada door besteed ze haar tijd aan het schrijven van authentieke en intense liedjes voor piano, gitaar, Keltische harp of welk instrument maar voor handen is. Emaline schrijft, omdat ze iets wezenlijks te zeggen heeft. Haar teksten behandelen o.a. onderwerpen als depressie, seksualiteit, eenzaamheid of dierenrechten. De gepassioneerde songs kunnen binnen komen als een warme storm, maar ook als een magische zonsondergang. Krachtig en rauw, melancholisch en teder.
Haar stem en muziek doen je soms denken aan Kate Bush of Tori Amos, maar ook aan die van de huidige stroming Scandinavische singer/songwriters.
Emaline Delapaix is an Australian singer, composer and musician who lives in Berlin Germany with her big orange Canadian cat Reece. She spends a lot of time writing intense folk-pop songs for piano, acoustic guitar, celtic harp and sometimes whatever else she has lying about the place. Her lyrics explore themes such as the human condition, depression, animal rights, feminism, sexuality as well as love, nature and adventure out on the open road. Some say she sounds a little like Kate Bush or Tori Amos, but she also loves a lot of Scandinavian music, music that invokes the weather like storms and warm sunsets.
After a difficult year of illness and depression, in 2010 Emaline decided to quit her day job in Toronto Canada, moving to an isolated fixed caravan in rural Eastern Germany close to the Polish border where she taught herself to play 3 instruments and lived for a year and half before settling in Berlin as a professional musician. Since that time she has performed over 500 shows all over Germany, Europe, Australia and Canada, creating a dedicated following and becoming well known for her raw and passionate live performances. In Spring 2015, she made her film debut as a silent narrator and composer for the Arte German/French Television documentary 'Helden der Zukunft' (Heroes of Tomorrow), an environmental film set in the future looking back on the current crises we are facing today. Aside from music, Emaline is also a vegan and animal activist who regularly gives a % of her CD sales to local animal shelters while on tour.

Available to perform solo or duo with my lapsteel/electric guitarist and for very special events as a trio with my cellist. I play acoustic guitar, piano and baby celtic harp with influences from Tori Amos, Kate Bush, Joni Mitchell and lots of Scandinavian folk pop musicians. I don't have very good live videos right now but working on it. Please also check out my recorded material.
Am more than happy to travel to the Netherlands and aiming to book more shows there in the future.
