Her Singing Was Featured in Season One of The Umbrella Academy

Emmy is an accomplished singer, but The Umbrella Academy isn't exactly a musical show. However, in episode eight of season one, "I Heard a Rumour," the episode opens with a cover of Etta James's "Stormy Weather" sung by Emmy. When asked what she thought about covering the iconic song, she told Alternative Press, "When Steve [Blackman] first asked me if I would be willing to do a cover of the known classic 'Stormy Weather,' once covered by legends such as Billie Holiday, Etta James and Ella Fitzgerald, for the opening of episode eight, I was speechless. We had been shooting for about six months already and I was really starting to miss singing on a regular basis, having just left Hamilton. However, taking on such an iconic song had me a little weak at the knees; as well as the fact that I would be singing over my own characters cold open for the episode. But above all of that, I felt deeply honoured."
