Emily Randolph and Oaklawn Teenage Blues and Rock band

Emily Randolph and Oaklawn” is a collaboration of five extremely talented young musicians from the Pacific Northwest with the charisma and skill to entertain and engage audiences of all ages with experienced and professional delivery of original blues, rock, and soulful music.

Emily Randolph is a 16 year old teen sensation. She was most recently seen on Season 5 of the NBC hit singing show "The Voice" in which she made it onto Team Blake. Only 15 at that time, she was mentored by singing legend Cher, and of course Blake Shelton himself. This experience helped Emily realize that the Blues/Rock/Soul genres are where she feels most connected. She is also an accomplished songwriter and writes with a very talented group in Nashville. One song that she co-wrote, called "Till It Breaks My Heart" is being featured in the movie "Category 5" set for national theatrical release Spring 2014 starring Burt Reynolds. Currently “Till It Breaks My Heart” is climbing music charts in the top 5.

Last year, Emily was one of 12 acts chosen for the annual "More Music at the Moore" Event in Seattle, WA in which she performed her original song "Little Rebel" as well as collaborated with other very talented young musicians from all different genres. She also opened for Jeff Bridges at the 2013 annual Paramount Theater "DOORS" Gala, a fundraising event for Seattle Theatre Group. Emily was described in the Seattle Times Newspaper as "15-year old phenom that channeled Janis Joplin.”

Emily’s debut EP, “Here We Go Again” recorded in Nashville, can be found on ITunes, CDBaby and other online stores. You can find some of her original demos on Reverbnation.com/EmilyRandolphMusic. You can learn more about her at www.facebook.com/EmilyRandolphMusic.

She has teamed up with Oaklawn, a four member band headed up by Zach Rowell who is also a singer/songwriter and recording artist. He has a self-titled EP currently available at popular online music stores. Zach is a national award winning vocalist, plays lead guitar and keyboards. Other band members include: Chance Martineau, guitar; Sean Murphy, bass; and Tyler Dahl, drums. All are 18 years of age and have spent half of their lives with training and performing their craft. Their fresh young look and high energy contradict their professional attitudes derived from years of experience. For more information on Oaklawn see Facebook.com/Oaklawn.music.
