Emily Haines is an artist that defies labeling. Frontwoman for Metric, she is proud to release her debut solo album, Knives Don't Have Your Back, this fall on Last Gang Records. The album was written and recorded over the past four years in Los Angeles, Montreal, Toronto, and New York and is a distinct contrast from Metric's bold, danceable sound. Knives is an intimate and subtle collection of mellow, piano-driven tunes complimented by soft string and horn arrangements.
