Blending sounds from his soulful, earthy influences, Dom Louis has been carving his name into the folk music scene through his timeless, evocative songs and charismatic performing sensibilities. He initially fostered a tight-knit and loyal community of fans through posting videos online. Eventually, through the 2022 release of his debut EP Everything Must Come Around, he was introduced to a wider audience. Born and raised in rural Southern Ontario, he first picked up a guitar and began writing his own songs at the age of 10, performing them at local fairs and community halls. Raised on classic artists like Bob Dylan and Tom Petty, he soon developed a love for a wide range of contemporary artists as well, ranging from Coldplay to Bon Iver. A self-taught multi-instrumentalist, by his teens Louis was producing recordings in his bedroom. After leaving high school early, he began pursuing music full time, playing street corners, open mic’s and dive bars from Toronto to Nashville, recording with new musicians met along the way. In the spring of 2023, Louis supported his self-titled full-length album with a string of headline tour dates from Ontario to Ohio, and followed it with the Live at Longboat Hall EP. In August 2023, he released the single "Walking To Your Doorway", later included on a deluxe edition of his debut album (released November 8, 2024). Originally playing county fairs as a teenager, he has come a long way - headlining his own tours through the North American Midwest, securing support slots for artists like Caamp and The Strumbellas, gaining millions of streams, and picking up a few new hats along the way. With his new album set for release in 2025, and headline shows spanning North America, Ireland and U.K, he has big plans and ambitions ahead.

The Niagara based songwriter Kiki Klassen (formerly of the Bae Beach Club) combines the vocal dexterity of Phoebe Bridgers with the soft-indie-rock inclinations of Julien Baker and Said the Whale. Klassen’s power pop songs have blossomed from casual bedroom demos into fully produced earworms.
