About the Canadian Folk Music Awards
KAELEY JADE will be arriving in Toronto fresh from performing at the 2024 Canadian Folk Music Awards in St. John's, NL, and she will be joined by guitarist, vocalist, and percussionist Gabriel Gagnon. Doors at 7 pm, music at 7:30 pm. Kaeley Jade is an award-winning Métis singer/songwriter, actor, and multidisciplinary artist based in Edmonton, Alberta (amiskwaciwâskahikan).
Blending lush imagery and hooky melodic lines to create her own brand of pop-forward indie folk music, Kaeley has performed at venues and festivals across Canada, including the Edmonton Folk Music Festival, JUNOfest, BreakOut West, the Canmore Folk Music Festival, NXNE, Coldsnap, and the Tkaronto Music Festival. Kaeley moves between ballads and bops with ease, and she brings electricity to the stage whether she is playing an intimate acoustic duo set or playing alongside her full five-piece band.
Her vibrant debut full-length album, Turpentine, has earned her significant recognition in the Canadian music scene—she is a 3x Canadian Folk Music Award Nominee, Western Canadian Music Award Nominee, Summer Solstice Indigenous Music Award Winner, SOCAN Indigenous Songwriter Awards Finalist, and 2023 Henry Armstrong Award Recipient.
