JUNO Award winner and several times nominee Kellylee Evans is a high-octane songstress whose natural charm and improvisational style leaves audiences wanting more. Having performed everything from jazz to R&B and pop, she is a singer not to be missed. She has performed around the world, opening for stars such as John Legend, George Benson and Willie Nelson. The Latin Jazz Network describes her as having a “gorgeous voice (that) rises to the heavens in rapturous wonder as if in consanguinity with a chorus of angels”. With eight albums to her name, including her tribute to the legendary Nina Simone that won her a JUNO Award, her music only gets better by experiencing it live and in person.

Evans has accomplished what she set out to do with her latest studio project, Show Love, a new six-song EP that offers a fresh and innovative approach, establishing new sonic terrain built on the foundation of familiar sounds and styles from the past. She has achieved a more futuristic soul concoction that blends elements of R&B, funk and yes — a hint of jazz — into earworm ecstasy. Whether it’s romance, parenthood or self-healing, Evans’ impeccable and versatile voice meticulously delivers the emotional wallop of each song with picture-perfect phrasing.

Opening for Evans is Krystle Dos Santos, a two-time Western Canadian award-winning singer, songwriter and performer. From Motown to Country Rock, this dynamic and versatile performer knows how to bring an audience to their feet! Her award-winning self-titled album was released in 2008, followed by Fame Fatale in 2011. BLOOM|BURN, her 3rd studio release, awarded her the Western Canadian Music Awards for R&B Artist of The Year in 2020. From singing on stage with Stevie Wonder and Michael Bublé, to theatre performances on stages all around North America, Dos Santos brings her eclectic style, powerful vocal prowess and magnetic charm to every performance she delivers.
