Boreal…

Canadian singer-songwriters Tannis Slimmon, Katherine Wheatley and Angie Nussey form the powerhouse trio Boreal. Their album Winterbirds earned Canadian Folk Music Award nominations for Album, Ensemble, and Vocal Group of the Year. On stage, they are warm, funny, and deeply connecting, with exquisite harmonies and inventive vocal arrangements. Rooted in Ontario and Manitoba, Boreal weaves their stories into a unique sound where three distinct voices—earthy, improvisational, and untamed—come together in thrilling, moving songs.
