Band Bio – Toni Vere:
Toni Vere is a Canadian singer-songwriter whose lyric-driven folk songs blend emotional depth, wry observation, and lived-in storytelling. Her work balances intimacy and strength, delivered with a grounded vocal style that resonates in both quiet listening rooms and festival settings. An engaging live performer, Toni connects quickly with audiences through honest songwriting and a confident, welcoming stage presence.

Band Bio – Mallory Chipman:
Award-winning singer-songwriter, Mallory Chipman, is fresh off the heels of her fifth studio album release, and is turning heads across the international folk-roots scene. Her latest record, Songs to a Wild God, hit #1 on CKUA upon its release and was one of the only indie albums to debut in the National Radio Top 50. Just weeks ahead of her official showcase at Folk Alliance International, Songs to a Wild God hit #5 on the international FAI Folk Charts.

Engineered by JUNO-nominee Scott Franchuk (Corb Lund, Del Barber) and featuring a line up of Western Canada’s top musicians, Songs to a Wild God boasts a sonic landscape that combines classic folk acoustic instruments, like banjos and tenor guitars, with modern units, like synthesizers and effects pedals, to create a sound that is definitively contemporary while proudly rooted in the folk tradition.

Songs to a Wild God displays Mallory’s vivid lyricism and acrobatic vocals atop a deft and dynamic rhythm section and was met with critical acclaim, a sold out album release concert at the Citadel Theatre, a 25-date tour across Canada and a forthcoming 2026 tour in Ireland & the UK.

In the past year alone, Chipman has toured across Canada, Europe, Korea, and Japan, turning heads at major showcases including North by Northeast, Folk Alliance, Alberta Showcase, Folk Music Ontario, and BreakOut West; while drawing comparison to Kate Bush, Alison Krauss, and Joni Mitchell.
