Picked up by Dresden-based K&F Records in 2018, Hello Emerson is another example of midwestern songwriting with international resonance – particularly in Germany – with reviews in Rolling Stone Germany, DPA, and Deutschlandfunk Kultur. With comparisons to John Darnielle (The Mountain Goats), Andrew Bird, Conor Oberst (Bright Eyes), and Sufjan Stevens – their debut record was heralded as \u201ca find for the genre\u201d and \u201cthe sublime intersection of the best American indie-folk bands.\u201d

Sam Emerson Bodary\u2019s songs have proven a maturity beyond his age, with an approach \u201cso round, clever, and grown-up that he could easily be fifteen years older.\u201d Now at 25, Bodary leans into How to Cook Everything<\/em>, Hello Emerson\u2019s second record with K&F Records and first with Columbus\u2019 indie Anyway Records.

Their sophomore effort, How to Cook Everything<\/em>, solidifies their reputation as an earnest, humble, and insistent voice in independent midwestern music. With contributions from 50 local musicians, Hello Emerson crystallizes life in a big town\/small city amidst personal and political tensions – confirming, denying, and otherwise complicating midwestern stereotypes within each narrative-focused song.

How to Cook Everything <\/em>will be released on January 24th, 2020 through Anyway Records in North America and K&F Records in Europe.

<\/em>– Mark Bittman, author of the bestselling cookbook \u201cHow to Cook Everything\u201d<\/a>

Praise for Hello Emerson\u2019s debut record, \u201cAbove the Floorboards.”
<\/strong>\u201cIdiosyncratic folk and bluegrass songs once as a rampant stream-of-consciousness text flood, once in the form of a short story… Conor Oberst and John Darnielle say hello.\u201d
<\/em>– Rolling Stone Magazine, Germany<\/a>

\u201cBodary resembles – both vocally and musically – intellectual overflights such as Conor O’Brien (Villagers), Sufjan Stevens, Andrew Bird or Conor Oberst (Bright Eyes)\u2026. consistently very pretty arranged, highly melodious, yet unobtrusive song gems.\u201d
<\/em>– DPA<\/a>

\u201cRarely have the debut of the current singer-songwriter generation such a sense of catchy songs, original instrumentations, and imaginative texts.\u201d
