The Very Thought Of You
The stunning new release, The Very Thought Of You may be Emilie-Claire's most personal album to date. There is an up-close and intimate tone that starts with the gorgeous cover art, and continues throughout this entire recording. The arrangements are fresh and focused, and all her own. Joined by an all-star band (Reg Schwager, Nancy Walker, Kieran Overs, Mark Kelso) and some fabulous guest soloists (Kelly Jefferson, Kevin Turcotte, Bill McBirnie, Alan Hetherington) Emilie-Claire leads the group, including a large string ensemble, through gems from the American Songbook (Almost Like being In Love, What A Little Moonlight Can Do, Surrey With The Fringe on Top), beautiful bossa novas (So Many Stars, De Conversa Em Conversa), and even a few tunes en francais! (C'est Si Bon, Les Yeux Ouverts). This album is romantic, playful, lush, swinging......timeless.

WINTER WONDERLAND (2006)
From timeless ballads, ("Christmas Time Is Here", "What Are You Doing New Year's Eve?") complimented by lush strings, to bouncy swingin' standards, ("Let It Snow!", "Santa Baby") this delightful collection of winter songs is sure to be a staple in your CD collection for many holiday seasons to come. On Winter Wonderland, her 5th studio offering, Emilie-Claire continues to impress critics and peers with her abilities as an arranger and producer, highlighted by her delivery of stunning vocal performances. Emilie-Claire adds her personal touch as always, penning an original vocalese on the lesser known "Little Jack Frost" and presenting an excitingly original take on "I've Got My Love To Keep Me Warm". This CD also includes the always popular "Baby, It's Cold Outside", a duet featuring the smoky voice of Marc Jordan.
