Emily’s debut album, Dreams May Take You, featuring Wycliffe Gordon, was officially released April 15, 2012. June 6, 2013 marked the release of Emily Asher’s Garden Party’s six song EP: Carnival of Joy! a celebration of Hoagy Carmichael which the Wall Street Journal called a “superior album.” Endangered Species Trio, A "concentrated chamber group with the intriguing instrumentation of accordion, bass saxophone and trombone" (Seattle Times) released their six-song EP Home on the Range in November, 2014.
