Since an early age, Emily Knutson has always been surrounded by music. From bluegrass to classic country and rock, she has known music has and will continue to shape her future. 

Starting as a classically trained violinist, Knutson quickly developed a love for fiddling. She has competed in fiddle contests and spent many years performing in the Milwaukee Youth Symphony Orchestra. Her love for music expanded as she headed into high school and performed in the pit orchestra for many musicals such as West Side Story, Wizard of Oz, and The Sound of Music. She also joined the high school band as a percussionist and marching band as part of the color guard and drumline. After graduation, Knutson attended the University of Wisconsin Waukesha as a performance major where she furthered her music education as a violinist and percussionist. 

In her adult career, Knutson has performed throughout the midwest with various bands for festivals, weddings, and private events. Large festivals include Milwaukee Summerfest, Twin Lakes Country Thunder, and Country Fest Cadott. She has been fortunate enough to share the stage with national country artists Joe Nichols, JoDee Messina, Nikko Moon, Craig Campbell, Chris Jansen, and Keith Anderson. In 2018 she was honored to receive a Wisconsin Area Music Industry Award for string player of the year and has recently relocated down to Texas performing in the Fort Worth area with Jon Hope & The Jackwagons. She has also spent time creating and recording fiddle melodies across the Midwest and Nashville for multiple rising country artists for upcoming albums.

Knutson developed a love for guitar and singing over the last decade and has dove into the realm of songwriting. Her focus is mainly 90s to early 2000s country, along with Texas country. Her hope is to bring a sense of nostalgia to her listeners and open their ears to artists they might not yet have discovered.
