Podcast 38 - Big Leg Emma
Podcast 38 - Big Leg Emma at Nietzsches
Jamestown NY’ s Big Leg Emma brings their melodic sound to the podcast.
Big Leg Emma is one of those bands whose name I kept seeing over and over for a couple years before I actually heard their music. I kept seeing their name listed in festivals like the Great Blue Heron, Nelson Ledges, Grassroots, etc. I finally caught up to them this summer at the Blue Heron festival and Griffis Sculpture Park, and when they were playing a few shows in Buffalo, I had to get them in a podcast!
