Red Bird Live - Ottawa, ON
Nova Scotia raised, Ottawa based singer-songwriter Malia Rogers has a clear musical mission: be the first person in the room to drop her shield, and in doing so, move others to lower their own. Her introspective, conversational folk offerings carefully balance melancholy and hope, touching audiences with precise lyricism, warm alto vocals, and gentle wit.
Join Malia and friends Neil Whitford (guitar) and Emma Bayash (vocals/keys) at Red Bird in Ottawa on Thursday May 29 to hear her debut EP Chameleon performed live on the eve of its release, alongside other treasured originals both old and new. Audiences can expect stirring celtic and bluegrass-inspired melodies, relatable stories about love, grief, and self-discovery, and intricate harmonies supported by fingerstyle guitar and clawhammer banjo.
