Emma Ilena

Emma Ilena is a 17-year-old Danish-Italian singer and member of the Danish Broadcasting Corporation's renowned DR Girls' Choir. She made her solo debut in September 2026 with Feeling Baby, which received positive reviews from music publications across Europe and Latin America, as well as widespread international radio airplay across Europe, North and South America, and Asia. Her debut also earned her a three-page feature in the British Frisson Magazine. Emma has been part of the Danish Broadcasting Corporation's choir programme since the age of nine. In 2026, she performed at Carnegie Hall in New York during the choir's US tour. She also appeared at the Royal Danish Theatre in the 2020 opera Nothing, based on the award-winning novel, and is a member of the vocal ensemble Tonika. Her second single, Days Seem Gray, released on November 13, 2026, explores heartbreak, lost love and fading memories through melancholic, cinematic pop-rock. With expressive vocals, rhythmic guitars, live drums and a gradually intensifying arrangement, the song marks a more dramatic direction in her emerging solo career.
