Brian Wood & Emily Lorena create intimate, lyrically-driven music that blends the rawness of folk with the soulfulness of R&B and the rhythmic undercurrent of hip-hop. Their songs are spacious, heartfelt, and disarmingly honest - inviting listeners into a space of warmth, depth, and reflection.

Brian has spent over two decades honing his craft as a songwriter and performer. He’s toured through 15 countries, played major U.S. festivals, and shared stages with artists like The Roots, Thievery Corporation, and Michael Franti. His work spans solo records, collaborations, and music featured in films, podcasts, and social justice movements—all rooted in a desire to connect and uplift.

Emily Lorena brings a deep intuitive presence to the duo, with vocals that add rich harmony and emotional resonance. While their early work together featured Emily harmonizing on Brian’s existing songs, their creative partnership has since evolved. Many of their newer pieces are co-written, reflecting the trust, balance, and shared vision that defines their work together.

Whether performing in candlelit living rooms, forest amphitheaters, or cultural summits, Brian and Emily create experiences that feel both grounded and transcendent.
