Her songs explore the wide-eyed optimism of moving to new cities, the expansive depth of oceans, and the stratospheres of space.

The five-track EP garnered her critical acclaim from taste-making reviewers, more than 30 cross-Canada tour dates, and a few top 20 appearances on !earshot charts. 

Through her years of recording and touring, Emily also found her closest collaborators: her band members. including Dan Rougeau (guitar), Soren Nissen (bass) and Ian Wright (drums). 

Always a strong composer and lyricist, in March 2018 Emily was invited to participate in the Banff Centre's three-week singer-songwriter residency where she wrote the bulk of her new record.
