About Me

VERONICA START is a singer/songwriter/writer from Vancouver, Canada, who is always adding to her collection of songs with the first pop single & trance singleYoure a Star - the extended dba mix peaked at no.11 in the Music Week Pop Commercial chart - along with the dba trance remix peaking at a respectable no.34 - in the competitive UK Music Week Dance Club chart.
Humble beginnings and tough emotional experiences have embedded this artists voice with a penetrating potency youll not forget. Veronica is proud of her Metis heritage (Metis people are a blend of American Indian and European). As a recording artist, Veronica has achieved international airplay with her music being supported by the world's top radio & club DJ's : Sasha, Armin van Buuren, Above & Beyond, Graham Gold, Matt Darey, Paul Kershaw, Darren Tate, and Adam White, Darren Tate, Dale Corderoy; with mainstream radio exposure on Ministry of Sound, Kiss100 & Galaxy FM. Veronica Start is now living near London, England.

In 2006, an unreleased cover of Kate Bush's 'RUNNING' featured on Armin van Buuren's ASOT No.237 as well as Above & Beyond...and we've been getting emails about it ever since. We regret that this track is not available for download but you can hear it in the player above, called Make a Deal with God.
