Artist Bio

Emily Kinney, a name synonymous with both the undead and undeniably catchy melodies, has carved a unique path in the entertainment world. While many recognize her for her captivating portrayal of Beth Greene on AMC's hit series "The Walking Dead," Kinney is far more than just a survivor of the zombie apocalypse. She's a gifted singer-songwriter, crafting introspective and emotionally resonant pop songs that showcase her vulnerability and artistic depth. Born and raised in Nebraska, Kinney's passion for performing arts ignited early. After moving to New York City, she honed her acting skills while simultaneously pursuing her musical ambitions. This dedication led to a string of independent releases, each offering a glimpse into her evolving sound. Her music is characterized by its raw honesty and lyrical storytelling, often exploring themes of love, loss, and self-discovery. One can hear this vulnerability in tracks like Loser, a song where she turns vulnerability into strength. Kinney's musical style blends elements of indie pop, folk, and alternative, creating a sound that is both accessible and deeply personal. Her voice, delicate yet powerful, perfectly complements her introspective lyrics. She has a knack for crafting songs that resonate with listeners on an emotional level, inviting them to connect with her experiences and perspectives.

Beyond her well-known role, Kinney has continued to expand her acting resume with appearances in various television shows and films, showcasing her versatility as a performer. However, music remains a central part of her artistic identity. She tours regularly, connecting with fans and sharing her music live. Her live performances are known for their intimacy and emotional intensity, creating a space where audiences can truly connect with her music. Kinney's ability to connect with her audience is also heard in Jonathan, where the intimacy of the lyrics draws the listener in. While her acting career may have initially brought her into the spotlight, it's Kinney's music that truly defines her as an artist. Songs like Mermaid Song and Married showcase her ability to create hauntingly beautiful melodies and lyrics that linger long after the song is over.
