Country singer and Voice contestant, Emily Ann Roberts joins Elaina on Breaking Thru!  "When I was in the 6th grade, I made my first public performance at my church singing “Blessings” by Laura Story. Later that year, my friend and I auditioned for our middle school talent show and though we tried our best, we didn’t make it in the competition. I decided to ask the teacher what I could improve on so I could have a better chance of making it the next year. My teacher said, “Maybe if you would’ve played an instrument you would’ve made it in the Talent show.” I went home that same night, got an old guitar out of the closet, and started playing it every day. My dad would take me to music stores on the weekend and I would sit and watch and learn from other players. A day didn’t go by that I didn’t pick up my guitar at least once. I fell in love with playing and after one year, I auditioned again for the talent show and I won." - Emily Visit Emily's official webpage: https://www.emilyannroberts.com Check out "live" music performances on Nash Country Daily:https://bit.ly/2YhLaXK https://www.youtube.com/user/CountryWeekly/videos Follow Elaina on Twitter:https://twitter.com/elainadsmith Elaina on Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/elainadsmith Learn more about your ad choices.
