Her writing intimate as an annotated novel, her voice pure as the first Robin of Spring,

Emma Dawson’s music is a fountain of depth, creativity, and insight of how she views the world around her. Based in Fredericton, New Brunswick, Emma is a singer-songwriter whose body of work is steeped in hues of heartbreak, activism and the natural world. Her fragile lyricism is evocative of artists like Lizzie Mcalpine and Adrienne Lenker, while her propensity for hum-along melodies and acoustic guitar playing is like that of folk icon like Noah Kahan. 

At only fifteen, Emma has gone from open mics to performing at festivals such as Flourish Festival, Fest Forward and Shivering Songs. She is a recipient of the Jane Leblanc Legacy Arts Capacity Grant and was recently a junior facilitator for the Fredericton Girls+ Rock Camp. She is also the lead vocalist of the indie-rock band The Pigeons. Emma recently released the demo of her song Hands On My Shoulders on Bandcamp and Soundcloud, and is looking forward to a busy year of live performances and recording.
