Live at The Tuppenny: Emma Doupe + Edie Bloom

Emma has quietly become a distinctive presence on the Swindon music scene, crafting a sound that defies easy categorisation. A vocalist and multi-instrumentalist, she moves effortlessly between groove-driven experimental tracks, dance-infused rhythms, and more refined, neo-classical or operatic passages. Central to it all is her voice—a rare, memorable instrument that lingers long after the final note.
Performing solo, Emma builds her music live, layering piano and more unusual instruments like the autoharp through live looping. This approach allows her to construct intricate, evolving soundscapes in real time, giving each performance a sense of spontaneity and intimacy.
Support comes from Edie Bloom, a South African artist living in the UK who writes alternative, cinematic synthwave folk music to encapsulate raw emotions through storytelling and experience-based lyricism. Although writing music with a beautiful sound is definitely a priority, the main point is to give people with similar thoughts an outlet which they can relate to.
