As Emily Wells prepares to embark on a full UK and European tour, which starts next week, the Brooklyn musician reveals a striking cover of Haddaway’s dancefloor classic What Is Love. Yes, I’m a 90s bitch and a sucker for 90s dance. Even if you’re not a fan of the 90s, you’re gonna love this. Her version is absolutely mesmerizing.

Emily Wells has been hailed for her multi-instrumental ambidexterity, a symphonic embroidering of swirling strings, ingenious electronics, and intricate, irresistible beats, sewn together with celestial vocals and deeply personal song-craft.
Emily will also release her forthcoming single Mama’s Gonna Give You Love on December 16th through Partisan Records taken from her album Mama that was released earlier this year. Wells was trained as a classical violinist and borrows from all kinds of genres ranging from hip-hop to dance. It’s a really subtle mix accompanied buy beautiful vocals.
