“TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN, I have taught Emile Harwood on occasion over several years now. I have always found her a pleasure to teach, and she has a lovely vocal style, and poise. I would reccommend her for any audition and production without hesitation. Emile has a strong powerful voice, but can also sing the most sensitve ballad beautifully. I wish her all the best with her career.”

Suzanne Lynch MNZM Vocal Coach, Singer/Performer.

“I do a lot for Charity in the Community and asked if Emilie would consider coming to Whitianga if I was to design a concert. The answer was yes and this showed a great side to Emilie and in the run up to the show which takes a lot of effort from many people, Emile was a joy to deal with from Costumes, to sets, music numbers. A true professional who helped make the evening a wonderful success on Saturday 5th April 2014 - A Night of Broadway Diva's and Dance In Aid of the Whitianga X Ray Machine Fund Off the back of the above successful Show which raised over $6000 for X Ray Fund Emilie offered to return in the middle of winter to do another two shows which took place on Saturday 30th August 2014 - 30's 40's and Sunday 31st August 2014 for 30's 40' Broadway Diva's and Dance. In aid of the Whitianga Youth Space. This show was a very different one with new artists performing and a new stage with the design and set up with the help of many people, once again Emilie made it a delight”

“Emilie is a fine singer with a dynamic vocal range and capable of many vocal genres, a performer with power and conviction! A worthy listen!!!”

Micheil Reid

“Emilie performed a set with her brother, Chris Harwood, at this year’s 2015 Helensville A& P Show on 28 February and a solo set at the previous year’s Show on 22 February 2014. The Helensville A&P Show has been running for over 115 years and remains a much loved regional icon. The Show is easily one of the largest single day events in the Norwest region and typically attracts crowds of over 6,000 people. We were extremely privileged to have Emilie sing at our Shows as part of her commitment to give back to her community: not only is she a very talented and confident vocalist with amazing stage presence, she is also professional, dependable and easy to deal with. Emilie tailored her sets to the demographic and nature of our Show, and, despite the diasporic nature of the event, managed to attract crowds around the stage (and get the crowds moving). We received a lot of very positive feedback and comments from the public following both her performances...”

“In February this year while organising a harbour cruise fund raiser event I really struck lucky! This very talented lady, Emilie Amber Barton, offered to sing for us. All I can say is wow, her energy, her enthusiasm, not to mention her amazing voice made the night totally memorable. Emilie knows how to capture her audience, and deliver a performance that kept us dancing all night long. I can’t wait to hear her perform again.”

Lyn Clayton - The Luvboat

“I would not hesitate to recommend you for an array of functions, but for us our Wedding was made the dream we had wanted it to be because of you. To have been able to choose our music and spend the evening with friends and family clearly enjoying every minute of your performances and dance the night away, was so perfect in every way.”

“Hello Emilie, I want to thank you so very much for singing at my mother's graveside funeral service a couple of months ago. Your beautiful voice and amazing rendition of the two songs I asked you to sing certainly made a very sad occasion into a somewhat joyful one. What a talented young woman you are! I also want to say how much I appreciated you travelling so far at just a couple of days notice. I had so many comments from people who attended the service all saying your singing was truly the most special part of the day. Thanks again Emilie and I wish you well in your singing career in the future. With your talent I just know you will have major success. Love, Diane White.”

Diane White
