Ariana Gillis

It’s always nice to discover new talent.
Each year I attend the outdoor Niagara Wine and Music Festival in St. Catharines, ON very near to where I live.
So I checked this year’s calendar and found this young gal (20 yrs.) Ariana Gillis is to appear next Saturday afternoon. I’m going to hear her remarkable voice.
Ariana is accompanied by her Dad-David playing the banjo at most gigs.
She appeared last year at the Folk Alliance Festival in Memphis, TN

A short bio.
Young, surprising, hot. And maybe Canada’s
most promising new pop artist…

“A blast of energy and fearless confidence, Ariana Gillis sings
and strums and stomps and leaves ripples behind her wherever
she goes. With an impressive vocal range and a firm grasp on the
craft of songwriting, Ariana is unstoppable. In 2009, she won the
Canadian Folk Music Award for Young Performer of the Year and
she has received multiple Niagara Music Awards. There is an intense,
driving force behind her folk/pop sound, and a deeper story behind
every song.”
– Andy Frank, Roots Music Canada
“Ariana Gillis is the best new emerging artist
anywhere, PERIOD!”
– Dave Marsh, best selling author, former music critic of
Rolling Stone Magazine & Creem Magazine
