"S.E.L. (Soulful Emma Louise) epitomises everything about modern contemporary British soul music today. [...] 2010 is shaping up to be a very exciting year for her. Having discovered her love for music at the tender age of five, S.E.L. began picking up the violin and playing the piano and since has failed to look back. Upon completing a successful degree in music the classically trained singer has been quick to establish herself on the London soul scene working with industry heavyweights like Alicia Keys. S.E.L. has also collaborated with reggae pioneer Sanchez and Blue's Duncan James, arranging vocal harmonies and performing backing and lead vocals. S.E.L. is currently performing with the legendary London based group Soul 2 Soul. Soul 2 Soul is the brain child of life-long London soul man Jazzie B responsible for huge hits like Keep on Movin and Back to Life (However Do You Want Me)" [Urban World].
