Music of the Mountains: Emily Pennington

In this week's episode of Music of the Mountains, we're featuring Emily Pennington, one half of the duo Trouble's Braids, who is coming to perform at Busey Brews on March 15th at 2 p.m.! Stay tuned to learn more!"Music is a relatively new adventure in Emily Pennington’s life. For her, it’s also one of the most unexpected, something she’d tried but never considered pursuing. 'To be totally honest, I played guitar a tiny bit in college and got really down on myself because it’s really hard and it hurts your fingers,” recalls Pennington. “I kinda put the guitar down for 10 or 15 years and didn’t even think about it very much.'"Our theme song is courtesy of singer-songwriter Brittney Wagner.
