Emily Remler ‎• East To Wes

Artist Biography

Emily Remler's death at age 32 from a heart attack (certainly not helped by her frequent use of heroin) was a shock to the jazz world, and a sad waste. She was just beginning to emerge from the Wes Montgomery influence and develop her own voice. Remler began playing guitar when she was ten, attended Berklee (1976-1979), and recorded as a leader for the first time in 1980. She played with the L.A. version of the show Sophisticated Ladies (1981-1982) and in 1985 had a duo with Larry Coryell, but otherwise mostly worked as a leader with her own small groups. After recording bop-oriented dates for Concord, she had a contemporary set for Justice, and toured with David Benoit before her sudden death.

Biografía del artista

La muerte de Emily Remler a la edad de 32 años por un ataque al corazón (ciertamente no ayudado por su frecuente uso de la heroína) fue un shock para el mundo del jazz, y un triste desperdicio. Estaba empezando a emerger de la influencia de Wes Montgomery y a desarrollar su propia voz. Remler empezó a tocar la guitarra cuando tenía diez años, asistió a Berklee (1976-1979) y grabó como líder por primera vez en 1980. Tocó con la versión de Los Ángeles del programa Sophisticated Ladies (1981-1982) y en 1985 formó un dúo con Larry Coryell, pero por lo demás trabajó principalmente como líder con sus propios grupos pequeños. Después de grabar fechas orientadas al bop para Concord, tuvo un set contemporáneo para Justice, y realizó una gira con David Benoit antes de su muerte repentina.
