In The Spotlight

Emmett Jerome – “Come Down”

Born in Alberta and based in Vancouver, this Canadian singer and songwriter grew up with the music of Doc Watson and Merle Travis. He began his career as a busker on the streets of Vancouver and was also part of bands like The Francis Baptiste Band. Since choosing a solo path, he’s performed at various festivals such as Vancouver International Jazz Festival and the Surrey Fusion Festival. Inspired by The Allman Brothers, B.B. King and Neil Young, he debuted with “Goodbye Trouble” in 2024.

Encouraging musicians to keep chasing the light at the end of the tunnel instead of getting lost in the darkness of exhaustion on the road, his new single is brimming with honesty and grit. Taken from his recently released EP “It Ain’t Me”, this song is doused in warmhearted Americana with a classic rock edge. With full-bodied electric guitars and an effusive rhythm painting the sonic picture and his emotive vocals telling the tale of wearying tours, this tune is a joy for your ears.
