About Me

MyGen Profile GeneratorFloxy's unique melding of poetry and melody has been the cause of goosebumps at nights of song for several years. From the Connecticut Berkshires to Boston and back to her hometown of Toronto, her bluesy-folk sound has delighted, inspired, and caught the attention of diverse audiences. She has travelled to LA to generate label interest, and is currently working on remastering a professional demo, which will be the next step in reaching a wider audience. She continues to be grateful to everyone who plays a part in keeping the independant music scene vibrant.
