US-based Guyanese guitarist Emerson Ally collaborates on album with songstress wife

Emerson Ally

Guyanese Emerson Ally has been making waves in the US as a producer/musician especially recently with the album ‘Symphony of Surrender’, a project he completed with his wife, singer Glacia Robinson.

The road to such an accomplishment was 35 years in the making for Emerson, and one which has been fulfilling in many ways, particularly meeting Glacia, a Jamaican-born singer.

Emerson spent his boyhood days in Uitvlugt, West Coast Demerara. Number 7 of 12 children, he grew up on the street today known as Ally Street named after for his family owing to his influential parents. His father was once a tailor and his mother, a teacher who was at one point the headmistress of a school there.
