Emily Arin is working on her second New Music Subscription series--writing and recording one new song per month for subscribers. Each song is sent via email as an MP3 download on the 15th of the month. Subscribing is an environmentally-friendly way to support independent music--and it's fun!--a surprise in your inbox every month (which always includes a story behind the song). Purchase a 6-month subscription for $10 by visiting the Store page. Songs 1-4 have been released and the 5th is due on June 15. Note: If you sign up in the middle of the series, you will receive all the previously recorded tracks.
SUBSCRIBERS WEIGH IN "Hi Emily, What a sweet song. I feel I've gotten my $10 worth already:-) I certainly identify with the message and yes, it evoked a tear. So thanks for being a good and caring friend to us all!" -Bob Kelchner in response to the first song "Dorothy, What Should I Be Giving Up for Lent?" |

A Los Angeles native, Emily Arin recently migrated to upstate New York to settle into small town living for a while. Winter in Montour Falls is cold. And though her heart flutters at the thought of Spring, Emily is happy to be indoors listening to music and writing songs (when her day at the Harvest Cafe grill is done). This site features some of Emily's more recent work and is intended to generate enough support for her to continue growing in her craft for many years to come. Thank you for listening.

The Ithaca Journal has published an annual musician's survey for the past ten years in which Jim Catalano has "polled many of the movers and shakers in the local music scene with three questions: 1) What was your personal musical highlight for 2007? 2) What was the best CD you heard (locally and/or nationally) in 2007? 3) What are you most looking forward to musically in 2008?" In response to the second question, Gordon Rowland of The Common Railers highlighted "Time and Space" as one of his favorite new CDs in 2007. In November, 2007, Emily was selected to play in Jezebel Music's Williamsburg Live Songwriting Competition. The Following is Ben Krieger's review of her performance at Brooklyn's Trash Bar: "As the performers wandered into Trash Bar for check-in, the joke was that this particular evening was "Ladies Night." Actually, the lineup was only 2/3 female, which is not a statistically significant imbalance. Considering that they all looked lovely standing around those scruffy, casually dressed male performers (no Kaz tonight), it was easy to see why people had that impression. I, for one, was not complaining. Regardless of gender, this was another solid night of music. Let's start with my favorite who didn't win... As I mentioned in my pre-blog blog earlier today, Emily Arin completely won me over. Walking up onstage in her coat and scarf (it was SO COLD in that room) she played a timeless, Hank Williams-inspired number. It reminded me a bit of Jaymay, who snagged a WLSC 2nd place slot a few years ago. But unlike the personal songs of that excellent, Dylan-inspired artist, Arin's "You Won My Heart Outright" was a lovely old school number with lyrics that were timelessness and resonating. I sat there wishing--imagining, even--that she had written that love song about me..." VIDEO: See the first Emily Arin video "Spend Some Time With Me" (created by Meredith Snider) on youtube!
