Sigfried Echo Hemming is an artist, poet, philosopher and musician, and cowboy based in Innisfil, Ontario. He plays the classical violin, sings and writes folk and country songs on the acoustic guitar, experiments with the harmonica and banjo, and is experienced in multiple forms of visual arts including but not limited to film photography, oil painting and installation. Sigfried’s performance style is characterized by his baritone vocals and melancholy poetic lyrics. He incorporates multimedia aspects wherever possible, and is especially fond of mime and puppetry, and projecting his animations.

He draws inspiration from classic artists like Bob Dylan, Beck, and David Bowie. Hemming brings a contrast to his performances, dressing in ccentric 1960s styles, but singing what is described as avant-garde folk and country music. Common themes of his music include homosexuality, misery, politics, and lived experience.
