Send us a text

Welcome back to another season of Girls Twiddling Knobs! At 20 years old, our first guest of the season, Emily Nash, is perhaps the youngest guest we’ve ever had on the podcast. But don’t let that fool you because this DJ & producer is currently setting the EDM world on fire.

When she didn’t get the grades she needed at school, she was encouraged to do a Music Production course at her local college. Little did she know that within just a couple of short years this would lead her to sign to Ministry of Sound and be tipped by Radio 1 as one of 2022’s rising stars.

Inside this episode, Emily shares what it’s been like seeing her music take off, her creative process and her positive experience so far as a women in the industry.

Girls Twiddling Knobs is hosted and produced by Isobel Anderson with production support from Jade Bailey and Francesca O’Connor and is a Female DIY Musician Production.
