Toronto-based Emma Worley spent many years dedicated to a career as a visual artist. Despite her burgeoning success in the visual-arts world, Worley found herself compulsively drawn towards creating the material that would become her debut album, Sentimentalist. Her songwriting is heartfelt, genuine and clever and her voice as soothing as it is powerful. Her debut record, Sentimentalist, released Spring 2022 on Victory Pool, showcases her maturity as a writer, despite it being her first public release of music.
