Episode Summary

Singer/saxophonist Braxton Cook joins Morgan to discuss Seven, Emily King's powerful voice, watching her perform live (remember live shows?), and the subtle but important decisions she makes throughout the record.

Episode Notes

You'd think being dropped from a major label would hurt your career, but in Emily King's case, it helped fuel her success. In 2008, she left a major label, J Records, and began working on an independent record. With the help of producer/composer Jeremy Most, she created "Seven" a seven-track EP filled with soulful ballads and heartfelt lyricism.
