About Me

Raine Morin is a singer/songwriter from Saskatoon, SK who utilizes guitar to write her alternative rock music. Her music is rhythmic and melodic and she has a talent for expressing intimate thoughts through words. Her lyric writing is both personal and insightful.
Born in Ottawa Ontario and raised in Saskatchewan, Raine discovered singing at a young age. She began writing music at the age of 13 when she received her first guitar. Since then she has performed her original music throughout the prairies of Canada. Her talent has drawn attention from both music appreciators and supporters to fellow musicians.
Raine has performed with and built friendships with fellow aboriginal musicians from across Canada. Her passion has always been music and she hopes to record a demo recording this year.
