Summary: Emma Elba is a singer-songwriter from Amsterdam. she grew up with folk (from Irish Xmas tunes to idealistic hippie songs) and you can easily hear that back in her subtle songs. Her songs can silence the roughest sailor and tell about love, nostalgia, and nature's phenomenons. WPL de Witte is a recovering alcoholic (7 months in), and as part of treatment started to compulsively write songs. Since January, WPL has written an album full of them, which is called 'Baart u ook Egeltjes', produced by Tim Achthoven. The record will be released after the summer. The album deals with life, love, death and more of that good stuff, told from the perspective of the eponymous hedgehog (not to be taken literally of course, but more a prickly character). Songwriters Guild Live is a weekly radioshow in Amsterdam, focussed on singers who write songs. This week your host was Ro Halfhide.
