Jenni, self-released on November 7, 2022, available in digital format in a limited edition clear cassette tape (30 available). This album is a tribute to my sister, Jenni Lynn McWilliams, who died of metastatic breast cancer on September 7, 2022, and is a musical reflection during the time immediately following her death.

Form in Flow, a new experimental, meditative, improvised piano album released under my name, Emily McWilliams, with The Crystal Cabinet in the UK. Beautiful, recycled lilac cassettes are sold out, but you can still buy the album digitally exclusively through The Crystal Cabinet's bandcamp here

EXCLUSIVE 7" available only at Sisters in Christ 7" featuring my cover of Alice In Chains' "Rain When I Die" and my collaborative cover of Bad Religion's "Kerosene" with Thou available only through New Orleans' Sisters in Christ record shoppe here. Endless thanks to Bryan for wanting to put this out! It's gorgeous and comes with a thick-papered photobook with many photos from my Ravel collab with Teddie Taylor as well as some others of hers thrown own, including the cover photo of the tree.

NEW SONG FOR BANDCAMP FRIDAY, MARCH 4, 2022 ~ Across countries and continents, across texts and emails, through a hurricane, HERE is a truly intercontinental collaboration of a cover of a Stevie Nicks' "Edge of Seventeen." Pay what you want/can. I had a blast doing this with Pedro Lopes (Ireland), Megan Mullins (Los Angeles), and Jorge Loura (Portugal)!

New, unreleased song "A Whirl to the Mirror" is on Strange Daisy Record's artist compilation, Strange Sounds. This spacious, introspective song recorded on a sad, rainy day closes out the double-LP collection. Listen and purchaser/pre-order here

ROADBURN with MJ Guider and Thou
April 11-14, 2019, I had the pleasure of joining MJ Guider and Thou at the amazing Roadburn Festival in Tillburg, Netherlands. We did a short stint of some northeast dates prior to going overseas. Thou was the artist-in-residence for Roadburn and played four sets, including the quiet set from Inconsolable, an album I had the honor of helping to create. 

Touring with MJ Guider and Thou, November-December 2018
I had the opportunity to tour with MJ Guider and Thou through the Midwest and west coast for three weeks in fall 2018.
