Émilie Samson

Émilie Samson is a jazz singer, composer, and educator based in New York. In 2017, after receiving a scholarship for Master's degree from the prestigious Manhattan School of Music, she relocated to the city from Montréal, Québec, where she was born and raised. Émilie has been actively engaging in live jazz performance since she came to the city and made her debut at Linocln Center before she graduated from MSM in 2019. Her Carnegie Hall debut was booked on March 14th, 2020 and her new EP An Introvert's Dream was released on June 12th, 2020. In addition to a singer exposed to different music styles, Émilie is also a well achieved composer. It is jazz along with many other styles of music, such as Brazilian music, musical theatre, classical and popular music that enriches the quality and adds extra layers to Émilie's work. This also reflects on her new EP with her arrangements and compositions. Through her music, Émilie talks about the human experience through time. In her arrangements, she gives a new life to old songs, making songs written almost a century ago relevant again. Her compositions are more introspective, showing a different side of her personality.
