Say Anise is London-based independent musician Emily Barnett. Her music is heavily influenced by the 60s and early 70s era of singer-songwriters, with a focus on story-telling lyrics, soaring melodies and layered harmonies. Her self-released debut EP ‘Say What You Want’ (2021) was recorded in various studios across London and mixed by Kristofer Harris (Belle & Sebastian), and received many positive reviews and great feedback.
“Say Anise uses four very different tracks to touch on a range of topics with stunning vulnerability and openness” - The Other Side Reviews
