About the Artists:

Scott & Lila Scott Hildebrand, 2021 Winner and Lila Despoix are an acoustic duo based in Berlin. They met when Lila spontaneously joined Scott while he was busking in the streets of Berlin in 2019. Since then, they have recorded an album and performed all over Germany, France, Italy and Sri Lanka.

Their feel-good music warms the hearts of listeners and fuses Indie-Folk, Blues and Jazz with a fresh modern twist. They perform their original songs with synergistic vocal harmonies, accompanied by guitar and ukulele. Their songs give listeners a dreamy, wanderlust feeling while retaining lyrical elements that are timeless, soothing and down to earth.

Emma HamelSinger-songwriter Emma Hamel spent many of her high school years scrawling lyrics in class and singing in her bedroom before she began performing her original music all around the Midwest.

Emma’s music pairs poetic lyrics with haunting vocals and stripped-down arrangements that let the story take center stage. Her deeply heartfelt songs are filled with the hopes, insecurities, and uncertainties that accompany the transition from youth to adulthood.

Emma has been featured on numerous radio and TV programs and was the 2018 winner of The Acorn Singer-Songwriter Competition.
