Out Now: Storytelling & Emotional Strength in Music with Emma O'Halloran

On today's episode of music/Maker with Tyler Kline, Tyler is joined by composer Emma O'Halloran.

If you’re not familiar with Emma or her music, you’re in for a real treat. There is definitely a quality to her work that could be described as magical: it’s buoyant, effervescent, nostalgic—there’s a lot of good in it, which is really a reflection of who she is as a person.

In this conversation, Emma and Tyler discuss how she views storytelling through music as a way of capturing emotions and hard-to-articulate feelings; her experience as a composer in both the US and in Ireland, and how those two countries are different for composers; the joys of collaborating with others; of course, her artistic path as a composer, and so much more.
