Kingston-born singer-guitarist and producer Emma Lamontagne landed a single’s deal in 2016, after winning Ottawa Bluesfest’s She’s The One contest. She recorded “I Don’t Sleep” with songwriter/producer Robyn Dell’Unto, which racked up close to half-million streams.
Just out of high school, she released two more singles, “Love Games” and “The Art of Reality,” and her 2019 debut full-length, Uncomfortable Eye Contact. Now, with an audio engineering degree under her belt and a new home studio, Emma is back with a sound that she wants: lyric-focused folk-pop. “I wanted it to feel very intimate, essentially the way I perform on stage with a guitar and vocals,” she says.
“Having worked with numerous young artists over the last 15 years or so, I feel that Emma is one of the top talents to walk through my studio doors.”

A difficult diagnosis of Postural tachycardia syndrome (POTS) — a chronic blood pressure disorder — forms the basis of many of her new songs as well as her chronic hate of dating. You see, while managing her illness, Emma’s between-song banter is downright hilarious. “I wish I could predict what I talk about on stage but at least everyone is as surprised as I am by what I say,” Emma posted.
Some of Emma's accomplishments include:
Over 435,000 streams on Spotify for "I Don't Sleep"
Over 160,000 streams on Spotify for "Uncomfortable Eye Contact"
