Performing – Emily Alice Shaw

Sharing music through performance is one of the most rewarding aspects of being a musician. I have been performing for most of my life: I started playing guitar and piano at age 5 or 6. I enjoy the thrill of being on stage and relish the opportunity to share music that I have been working on and discovering for weeks/months/years.

Over the past year, I have had the incredible opportunity to record and release my first solo CD with the support of the Ontario Arts Council. You can view and purchase the CD here.

I have another CD project in the early stages of planning—stay tuned as new developments will be announced over the next year. Join my mailing list to stay up to date on all of the latest news.
