“When I was a little kid…I would creep downstairs to the piano and write rudimentary songs about imaginary places. I’m told the first song I ever wrote was a love song to a cranberry tree. I always used the mute pedal. I hated the idea of anybody hearing me. Everywhere I’ve lived while working with Metric, I’ve written songs on the piano and played them for no one. On the advice of a friend, I decided I’d better start recording them before they were forgotten. Four meandering years later I ended up with this collection of songs featuring a few of my favorite people, a group I call The Soft Skeleton.” - Emily Haines
Broken Social Scene member and Metric vocalist's side project, shes also appeared in various BSS side projects. They (Emily Haines & The Soft Skeleton) have a new EP out, which they released it awhile ago "What Is Free to a Good Home?." The sound is basically Emily Haines and her piano with the occasional backing instruments.
