Rap Battle Vol 7 Ft Ember Swift

Date: July 28 - 8 pm

Venue: Soi Baochao

Ember Swift is a Canadian musician and songwriter who has released 12 albums and one DVD project since 1996 through her own independent label Few'll Ignite Sound. Her most recent album Sticks & Stones in 2017 is a collection of work in three categories: Songs for Adults, Songs for Kids, and finally Songs for Adults w/Kids, a community she feels deserves some separate recognition. This new body of work culminated over the past five years since becoming a mother of two in 2012 and 2013, respectively. This is Ember's third release since moving to Beijing in 2008 and it demonstrates how music can serve as a bridge between the two divergent cultures. Fluent in Mandarin and French, Ember sings in all three languages, including English. With the inclusion of the Chinese traditional instrument erhu alongside of Western contemporary instruments, the performance and sound are both entertaining and unique.
