Description

The voice and the songs are certainly the driving force behind Backseat Heroine, at its core it’s held together by the love and passion of the musicians around her.^[1] The cover art of Backseat Heroine, a painting of Emma-Lee, was done by Michael Michael Motorcycle, a painter and illustrator, to reflect a "70s, psychedelic vibe".^[2] The inspiration for the album's title is derived from the Bobbie Gentry song "Girl from Cincinnati." The album is dedicated to Emma-Lee's father who died before the album was officially released.^[2]

Backseat Sessions

Jessica Denomme describes the Backseat Sessions as a, "series of video-documentaries that followed her [Emma-Lee's] hitch-hiking expeditions around the Greater Toronto Area and performing to random motorist in exchange for a lift".^[5] During Canadian Music Fest in 2012, Emma-Lee rented a SUV limousine to serenade industry professionals.^[6] The results of the backseat sessions were posted online and can be viewed on Emma-Lee's YouTube Channel [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3h7WCIzsCdw&feature=BFa&list=UUlgWDCQwBXNSUvDd4V8sF5A video].

Track by Track Tuesdays

In anticipation of the release of Backseat Heroine, Emma-Lee released a weekly “Track by Track” interview every Tuesday leading up to the release of Backseat Heroine.
