Emily Sparks is singer/guitarist/keyboard-player Bridget "Jet" Mullen, Guitarists/Multi-instrumentalist Doug Walseth, Keyboard Player Adam Luikart, Bassist Zachary Firnhaber, and Drummer Travis Garaffa. What start out as simple, melodic, and lyrically-focused songs become multi-layered collages of emotion and sound.
