Emily Nawrocki is an emerging force in the pop-soul world, captivating audiences with powerhouse vocals, heartfelt storytelling, and an undeniable stage presence. The Boston-area singer-songwriter has continued to build momentum through a growing list of accomplishments, including two nominations at the 2025 International Portuguese Music Awards (IPMAs) for her single “Blue Eyed Baby,” recognized in both the Best Pop Song and People’s Choice categories. She was also named a quarterfinalist in America’s Next Top Hitmaker, presented by Rolling Stone and Global Citizen, further establishing her as an artist to watch.

Her debut full-length album, Evolving, produced by multi-Grammy-nominated producer John Mailloux at Bongo Beach Productions, showcases a distinctive blend of pop, soul, and Motown influences. Described by Wavy Magazine as “a journey of self-discovery and artistry, blending rhythmic energy with lyrical introspection,” the album pairs vintage-inspired sounds with modern pop sensibilities and deeply personal songwriting. Nawrocki collaborated with an accomplished group of musicians whose credits include work with artists such as Michael Bublé and Jackson Browne, bringing both musical depth and authenticity to the project.

A double graduate of Berklee College of Music, holding a Bachelor of Music in Professional Music and a Master of Arts in Songwriting, Nawrocki draws inspiration from artists including Amy Winehouse, Carole King, and James Brown. Her sound is rooted in classic soul and timeless songwriting while embracing the energy and accessibility of contemporary pop.

Beyond the studio, Nawrocki has established herself as a compelling live performer. Her sold-out album release show at the 800-capacity Narrows Center for the Arts demonstrated her ability to connect with audiences both on and off the stage. Most recently, she has continued expanding her live performance resume, including opening for two-time Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter Maggie Rose. Whether performing with her full band or in a more intimate acoustic setting, Nawrocki brings an engaging, energetic, and emotionally authentic presence to every performance.
