According to her website, when EmiSunshine was ten months old she was able to hum the melodies to songs, which was long before she learned to talk. As the years passed she learned how to write her own songs and play multiple instruments.

By age seven, EmiSunshine had already recorded her first two albums, but her talent remained basically hidden until one video changed everything.
