Get to Know EmiSunshine
1) Rolling Stone named her one of “10 new country artists you need to know” in 2017. Her talent is full of “wisdom and ferocity” they wrote. A review like that from a major magazine is impressive for only 13 years old.
2) While her stage name is EmiSunshine, her full name is Emilie Sunshine Hamilton.
3) She writes about everyday things that happen. Or, things she’s heard from others. Topics like natural disasters, bullying, etc. are all fair game. She looks at problems and tries “to make something beautiful out of them,” according to her official website.
4) She may be only 16, but she has two albums out already. Ragged Dreams in 2017; her latest project with The Rain is Family Wars.
5) EmiSunshine’s appeared on The TODAY Show, NBC’s Little Big Shots, and performed at the Grand Ole Opry. Look at this adorable throwback photo below for proof!
Watch Little Emisunshine sing “Folsom Prison Blues” in Knoxville, Tn in 2014!
To see her in action, watch American Idol on Sunday March 21 at 8 PM ET, only on ABC.

One of the best songwriters out there. I’m serious folks, check out her work!
I have watched this child since she was a tot and wrote a song called “I am not Famous”… but people know my name in this town. I mean I believe she was five. I KNOW she deserves a platform for her songs are so … some how…. pure. Like nothin’ else…. but then she sings them with a voice that came from other lives lived. Cause I neva heard a child who could sing like she could.
