Hey Bertha is the latest project from Emily Parasiliti; bringing you big-toe tapping Americana from the piano and harmonica. Before Hey Bertha, Emily toured for 3 years with The Coteries as the lead vocalist and harmonica player. She played over 400 shows across 46 states opening for artists like The Marshall Tucker Band, Brandi Carlile, The Fray & Ricky Skaggs. Endorsed by GoWesty, Emily traveled by VW Bus writing stories from her experiences on the backroads of the American countryside. Emily has earned numerous accolades for her songwriting, including awards in The American Songwriter Lyric Competition for "Dance" and "You're Here Now", and has penned lyrics for Grammy Winning Artists. With a recent relocation from Colorado to California, her debut EP will be out later in 2020. Hey Bertha brings you soulful, heartfelt music telling true tales of people, travel, love, loss and the strength to find your own path down life’s open roads.
