Emily Triggs Biography
Emily Triggs has been active in the Calgary music scene ever since she decided to make her home in the city twelve years ago. Member of local bands “The House Doctors’, “Magnolia Buckskin” and the Fragments she has been singing festival, clubs and coffee houses and is becoming known as one of the areas established singer songwriters. Her style compared to the likes of Michelle Shocked and Dar Williams, Emily has recorded with a number of musical artists over the years including Joe Fournier, Conrad Walz and Rob Ursel. Emily’s natural talent was honed in Hemmingford, Quebec. Her mother was a dancer in the folk troup “Les Feux-Follets” and her father Stanley Triggs was active in the early sixties as a Canadian folk singer. The youngest of five musically inclined children, Emily, at an early age, joined in the family living room jam sessions. Frequently local and visiting musicians attended, adding variety to the milieu. Here in a mix of English and French culture, she learned the history and art of lyrical composition and performance. By age eleven she was playing guitar, writing songs and performing. For two years she studied music at Montreal’s Dawson College, and in 1997 she packed her bags, and made her move to Elkins, West Virginia. Here she studied a minor in music and immersed herself in the Appalachian folk music culture. She's made her way from then to now with the philosophy that all of life's experiences, for better or worse, can be mined for the raw materials of a good song - hence her mantra of “no regrets”. Emily shares her stories through songs with an endearing simplicity that belies their emotional depth. Her music grips the heart and elevates the soul. Accumulated over the years are over 50 compositions from which she will draw tracks for her forthcoming solo album. With a pure and true vocal, complimenting a solid base of undeniably bred-in-the-bone roots music composition, Emily engages the listener. She is an observer of the world around us. Her songs are double edged, unapologetic and a unique sound in the genre of folk/roots. Musician/Artist
