There are a few specific reasons why Emily Triggs titled her new album The Great Escape, the main one being that the 13-song collection represents a break from old ways of thinking that the Montreal raised, Calgary-based Americana singer/songwriter says have held her back both artistically and personally. With her new material, Triggs set out to challenge herself by ignoring any genre restrictions, and the result is her most honest and empowering album to date.



Describing Emily’s sound in No Depression, Gillian Turnbull wrote, “Her originality continues through song themes that challenge the dominant singer-songwriter narratives so often employed by her colleagues.” And in the words of the Calgary Herald’s Eric Volmers, “While hardly a traditional folk performer, Triggs does have a knack for timeless melodies and crafting seemingly simple lines that nevertheless possess a good deal of gravity.”
