Emma Pask was just 16 when world class Jazz musician, James Morrison, asked her to join his band.
Her talent was spotted by James Morrison during one of his regular musical visits to high schools. She first sang with his band that night in March 1994, and has been recording and touring with Morrison around Australia and overseas, ever since.
