ELORA, ONTARIO

Elora multi-instrumentalist Emmett Watters is playful in his pursuit of earnestness. Weaving evocative lyricism with jazz-tinted folk, Watters’ unique sound is as emotionally potent as it is lighthearted. Taking cues from Rufus Wainwright and Bruce Cockburn, his songwriting captures the interplay between imaginative storytelling and rich, melodic sensibilities.
