An Amiestreet fairytale

May 27th, 2007

On Amie Street it all starts with a good song or maybe a few good songs... In any case, Emma Burgess has never been on our front page before but with a few REC's she's become one of the most popular artists on the site! One could suppose that some luck is involved, but her album Swim is nothing less than a phenomenal debut packed with inventive songwriting wrapped up in catchy melodies and a pop-perfect candy shell. Play Button Big Break

starts out with a simple guitar line but soon becomes a rockin' take on the not entirely normal microcosm that is California or... L.A. Sweet chimes start out Play Button My One Song For You a ballad with some rather poignant lyrics made all the more touching by Emma's timing and delivery.

The perfection of every single song on this album begs the question: who's the writing team behind this girl... The answer: No One. Emma's been humming to herself since she had a treehouse in Massachusetts, playing her guitar since a car accident confined her to a wheelchair for months, writing songs ever since the days were dark enough to need an outlet. Now, she's in L.A. and there's already a bit of a buzz, but she's still the one writing the songs.
