STACEY KANIUK w/ Grey
One of Toronto’s most powerful female vocalists Stacey Kaniuk has just confirmed Valentine’s day in The Rivoli Back Room.
With heartfelt dedication and enduring honesty on her debut full-length CD “Hot Air Balloon”, 26 year old Stacey Kaniuk is an authentic virtuoso. Bringing confidence to her craft, the classically-trained pianist's boisterous, hook-laden songs unite a devout passion for the earnestness of soul, folk and pop music with a flare unto herself. One almost finds it impossible to believe such powerful, alluring singing could belt out of a tiny, red-headed frame.
