Echo Juliet (Emily Jones) has spent over ten years immersed in music, booking one of the UK’s biggest jazz festivals. She brings that knowledge to the decks with soulful jazz, funk and disco from around the world, weaving in uplifting afro and latin grooves. A commitment to delving beyond the mainstream shines through in live sets and in her new Balamii show ‘No Borders', which offers a chilled set of new jazz and soul from underground artists across Europe alongside beautiful global sounds from established names.

Appearances at home and abroad have included the British Music Embassy at SXSW in Texas, Love Supreme, Green Man festival, Mostly Jazz, Cheltenham and Manchester Jazz festivals, and regular sets around Birmingham including at the respected Hare and Hounds and Cafe Artum.

Emily is a member of DJ collective Selextorhood and is often called on to speak about gender balance in the music industry, appearing as a guest on Woman’s Hour on BBC Radio 4 and Worldwide FM. She also co-hosts a monthly show on Brum Radio, and now works as Senior Producer at Sage Gateshead.
