About Chelsea E

ABOUT CHELSEA E. (Chelsea Emata)
From a girl group to dramatic reality TV and back to music as a solo artist, Chelsea E. has been steadily climbing the entertainment industry ladder for years.

Chelsea, a native-born Filipino with Spanish and Chinese roots, was born in Cagayan De Oro Philippines, and has been an L.A. resident since the age of five. Perhaps living in the hub of entertainment known as "Hollywood" brought about the performer in her. Since Chelsea was eight, she was behind a mic, performing regularly on stage.

To better develop her passion for the arts, her parents showed their support by enrolling her in magnet schools and conservatories. She graduated from L.A. County High School for the Arts where she studied voice, dance, and musical theater.

At the age of fifteen, Chelsea joined an all Asian female music group called SX4 where she started her professional recording career. Despite worthy promise with 3 singles released under BMG, a recording contract offer with a major European label, and great exposure from such venues like the Hollywood Bowl and the Apollo NY, the group ended its run shortly after.

Determined to keep her dream alive, Chelsea gathered her thoughts and ideas and began writing and collaborating for her own music. Besides performing at just about every venue in and around L.A., Chelsea has written and co-written nearly 40 songs to date, and has recorded close to 100 songs throughout her young career.
