"Christmas, You and Me"

"I love the holidays and Christmas is one of my favorites. It's such a special time of the year - a time where, all over the globe, there's merriment and good cheer. People actually try to reflect on peace, love and goodwill. So the holidays were coming up and I heard this melody in my head and thought how lovely it is to share moments with that special person in your life. Then the words came - I sang it to Joel Jaffe, my producer and songwriting partner. He loved it, made some changes, added his music magic with his guitar and with the support from some of my San Francisco Bay area musician friends 'Christmas, You and Me' became our first song together." The track also features piano by Eamonn Flynn, drummer Ed McClary and bass player Marc Levine.

Out And About with Vella
At Andy's in Los Angeles - September 25, 2025

Thursday night, September 25th, was truly a night to remember as one of What's In-Store Music's most popular artists, Vella, took the stage at Andy's in Los Angeles to perform ten songs from her Sonet/Universal Music Sweden debut album, "All My Love", which dropped the very next day.
Vella, whose powerhouse vocals draw comparisons to Amy Winehouse and Janis Joplin, first captured global attention in 2020 through her TikTok performances of both original songs and standout covers, quickly amassing nearly a million streams. Her remarkable voice, songwriting talent, relentless drive, and countless miles on the road all led to this unforgettable evening.
A huge thank-you to Ray De La Garza for introducing us to this extraordinary young artist. Be sure to stream All My Love from start to finish using the link below-you'll be glad you did.
Have a great week,
Scott Emerson
