Emma Lamontagne
Bio
Emma began turning heads in 2016 after winning RBC Bluesfest’s “She’s The One” competition, a Canada-wide talent search for emerging female artists. The “She’s The One” judges were captivated by Emma’s voice and her ability to deliver an emotive live performance. Emma’s renditions of “Sweater Weather” by The Neighbourhood and “Life of the Party” by Shawn Mendes earned her top honours, along with a chance to produce her own material. Since winning the “She’s The One” contest, Emma has worked with some venerable names in Canadian songwriting, including the Fourth Floor Productions writing team, as well as Robyn Dell’Unto and Kevin O’Brien, to name a few, allowing her to hone her craft even further. Her debut single “I Don’t Sleep” has gained 400K streams on spotify since its release in July 2017. It peaked at number 16 on the CBC Radio 2 Top 20 chart, and reached number 1 on CKDJ 107.9’s first Top 10 of 2018. She is dedicated to pursuing a career as a touring artist. |

Story Behind the Song
Essentially, this song is about a person who knows how they feel for someone but isn't sure if they are ready for a commitment, but they want to try. They choose to ride the wave and let their feelings take over their instinct. |
Verse:
D#m B Your ocean eyes Are all I’m looking for F# G#m D#m C# Feeling like it’s not real anymore This sweet sunrise Take me ashore Floating but I got my feet on the floor Prechorus: B C# D#m F# C# Ohh Give me something to take this sweetness away Ohh give me something to break cause I just wanna stay Chorus: D#m C# B And by the time that we’re lost at sea ooh F# C# I’m gonna find a way to ride these waves Into the wide open part of me Gotta be strong gotta let love Take over me |
Verse:
Counterclockwise My head’s spinning around Feeling like we could never be found These violet skies As we walk down Waves might come crashing all over town Prechorus: B C# D#m F# C# Ohh I need something to take this sweetness away Ohh give me something to break cause I just wanna stay Chorus: D#m C# B And by the time that we’re lost at sea ooh F# C# I’m gonna find a way to ride these waves Into the wide open part of me Gotta be strong gotta let love Take over me Bridge Chorus x3 |
