The Queen of Heartbreak has arrived. Vancouver-raised singer-songwriter Emilee Moore's airy soundscapes and heartbreaking lyrics will become engraved in the deepest corners of your heart, sending you on the most cathartic, nostalgic, and bittersweet journey down memory lane—forcing you to revisit every person you've ever loved with just a verse and a chorus. Her attention to the intricate details of heartbreak cannot be ignored, capturing the universal experience of heartache that anyone who's taken a chance on love knows intimately.
Emilee got her start by garnering viral success on TikTok through rewriting popular Disney/Pixar movie theme songs including Up and Finding Nemo. Her high-streaming singles "Up In The Sky" and "If I Don't Have You" touched on the loss of her grandmother, tugging at the heartstrings of millions experiencing grief. She took these releases to extraordinary heights—literally—performing "Up In The Sky" from a hot air balloon above Vancouver, garnering 50 million+ views across platforms, CTV national television coverage, and a placement in People Magazine, while simultaneously catching the attention of Meghan Trainor with the viral TikTok that sparked the hype of her Finding Nemo rewrite.
Last year, Emilee began the rollout of her debut album with "Hanging On," performing the song from atop a self-built billboard en route to Coachella Festival. The result: 100 million+ views across platforms, #31 on Instagram's Global Trending Audio Chart, viral sounds chart dominance for two weeks, and features in Billboard Magazine and Forbes. Her long-awaited debut album Green(er) holds a collection of songs written in the name of first heartbreak, first love, and the desperation of discovering how to unbreak your own heart after someone forgot to be delicate with it. With a combination of "early Coldplay meets Taylor Swift," the album was meant to make listeners feel understood in the grandest of ways—and it did exactly that.
Today, Emilee stands at a pivotal moment: 15 million+ career streams, 234K Instagram followers, 204K TikTok followers, and placements on New Music Friday Canada, Women of Canada, and Sad Hour playlists. She's placed an original song in Lifetime Television's "While They Were Sleeping" and created something unprecedented in the Canadian music landscape: "Heartbreak Hour," a weekly TikTok and Instagram Live sanctuary where thousands gather every Monday night to share their stories, witness new music first, and find comfort in collective healing. Recognized by mental health platform Hearts 4 Minds for "turning heartbreak into a community," Emilee isn't just building a fanbase—she's leading a movement.
With her forthcoming EP Emerald, Emilee steps fully into her identity as a serious touring artist and prolific songwriter. Six piano-driven songs chronicling the stages of her first heartbreak—from acute pain to introspective healing—the project draws from the Lilith Fair era (Sara Bareilles, Norah Jones, Adele) while creating something distinctly her own. Set to release as singles throughout 2026 before a midsummer EP drop, Emerald represents the music she needed when she was most broken, now offered to a generation seeking the same catharsis. From viral TikTok moments to national television coverage, from Billboard features to hot air balloon performances, Emilee Moore has proven she's not chasing trends—she's building the sustainable Canadian music career that honors both her artistic vision and her commitment to helping people feel less alone in their heartbreak.
