Creatively recrafting a pop classic, an enjoyable and authentically live ode to the original – all the more impressive on knowing the artist is just eight years old – Emma Jiang lights up the strengths of a catchy contemporary melody and mood, with this devoted cover of Señorita.
Promising the unmistakable chord pattern and melody united, amidst a simple set-up of organic live performance, the notably raw cover version is ultimately refreshing for its honest depiction of what’s possible with natural, focused musicianship.
Everything down to the metronome sound adds further to the realness of the delivery, and Emma’s concentration helps keep things familiar and full-sounding throughout the sub-two minute dedication.
No doubt a worthy nod to the Camila Cabello and Shawn Mendes summer hit, Emma Jiang’s version of Señorita introduces a musician with no qualms about blending genres and mediums within the art form.
Whether classically trained or self-taught, this rendition of the mighty pop song makes for a memorable introduction to a young and promising creative. Head over to YouTube and hit subscribe!
