Emma Campbell

BIOGRAPHY

Toronto born singer/songwriter and multi-instrumentalist, Emma Campbell, has spent the majority of her life making and performing music. For as long as she can remember, Emma has been playing piano and singing in front of audiences, moving on to pick up the guitar at the age of 13. Her childhood was art-filled, growing up with established songwriter and music educator, Monique Barry, and a graphic designer and photographer as a father.

 

Now, at only 21, Emma has already performed at multiple Toronto venues, the most notable being The Drake UndergroundThe Rivoli, and The Dakota Tavern. In 2022, Emma participated in the NXNE Music Festival at The Painted Lady. In the fall of 2023, Emma was selected by Folk Music Ontario to showcase at their conference in London, Ontario as a part of the prestigious Developing Artist Program. 

 

Blending the sounds of folk and pop music, Emma pulls much of her inspiration from artists such as Lizzy McAlpine, Phoebe Bridgers, and Scott Helman. She is currently promoting her debut EP, "Oh Emma," (released May 2022), a collaborative production with renowned Canadian producer, Michael Philip Wojewoda, as well as her most recent single, "What I Need" (October 2023).

With passion-filled lyrics, Emma Campbell is releasing music that is vulnerable and is spelling out the emotions some of us can't even begin to express with words.” - Isabel Dowell
