Description:

Ever since we first heard Emma Louise and her debut single 'Jungle', she’s shown all sides of herself, singing her story with a vulnerability and reflection that connects with us all.

Last year, Emma released the collaborative album Dumb with producer Flume. But it’s been a good 8 years since her last solo album. Until now.

This week, she returns with Sunshine for Happiness. A record that was actually recorded in 2019. Why the wait? You'll find out, when she joins you to Take 5.

Emma Louise's song choices:

  • Paul Simon – Still Crazy After All These Years
  • Nick Drake – Pink Moon
  • Bruno Mars – Versace on the Floor
  • Dijon – The Dress
  • Alice Coltrane – Govinda Jai Jai
