Jazz-pop breakout Emma Nissen rose to fame with her viral “Jesus and Jazz” reel in 2023. Known for her timeless voice and magnetic charm, she’s earned praise from industry icons and performed at NYC’s Blue Note with Adam Blackstone. Her debut album Love Like You has seen major success, following sold-out European shows. In 2026, she returns to the studio for her next release, continuing her rise as a bold and genre-blending new voice.
Emma Nissen is a jazz-pop phenom who became known for her “Jesus and Jazz” style after a reel of her scatting on her Christian song “Breathe” went viral in late 2023. Since then, thanks to her timeless voice and lovable personality, her videos have amassed over 200 million views and close to 800k followers on Instagram. This surge in attention led to Emma being recognized by the likes of Lauren Daigle, SZA, Meghan Trainor, Queen Latifah, and long-time Rihanna, Maroon 5, and Justin Timberlake collaborator, Emmy and Grammy winner Adam Blackstone—who invited Emma to perform with his world-class band at the famed NYC jazz club, The Blue Note. This led to Blackstone producing her most recent single and album title track, “Love Like You.” Additionally produced by Grammy, Dove, and Billboard award winner Seth Mosley, Grammy award nominee Nate Pyfer, and acclaimed producer Stephen Nelson, her debut album showcases Emma’s extraordinary talent and has been a tremendous success. In 2025 Emma toured the biggest cities in Europe with sold out shows in the UK and Amsterdam, and continues her tour in the USA. In early 2026 she heads back into the studio to record her new album, which will be followed up by extensive touring.
