Ariana Fig is a Hamilton-born singer-songwriter whose craft blends vulnerability, storytelling, and genre-defying musicality. Rooted in classical violin training yet drawn to the expansiveness of indie, folk, rock, and alternative sounds, Fig has developed a songwriting voice that is as unpredictable as it is distinct. Her lyrics are known for their raw honesty and layered emotional depth, while her melodies transform personal reflection into anthems that resonate widely. As a live performer, each performance showcases her ability to create connection through words and melodies that feel both personal and universal.

Maddie Corinne is a Canadian country artist born and raised in Pickering, ON. She has been working on her craft since she was 12 years old. With influences like Taylor, Jewel, Dolly, Maren and more - she has been working on her own music, as well as penning songs for other artists for the last few years. With a mix of vulnerability and tongue-in-cheek humour, Corinne wants listeners to feel as though they have gotten a look at exactly what is going on in her mind — whether that be thoughtful, chaotic, humorous, or angry.

Luiz Grante (he/him) is a queer Brazilian singer-songwriter based in Hamilton, ON. Coming from a musical theatre background from pre-pandemic times in Toronto, Luiz is excited to start telling his own stories through his songs. His music lives somewhere between indie, folk, and alternative, driven by storytelling, collaboration, and soulful performances. Luiz brings his full self into everything he creates.
