Brenda MacIntyre is known as Medicine Song Woman. When you experience her voice, you will understand why.
Based in Toronto Canada, Brenda is a Native American singer-songwriter who masterfully fuses Aboriginal hand drumming, Roots & Blues stylings and soulful vocals with authentic, inspiring spoken teachings.
Her performances energize and calm you, while leaving you with goose bumps, and her teachings leave you feeling centred and inspired.
Her latest CD Medicine Song was released in 2009 and is nominated for a 2010 Canadian Folk Music Award. It also has enjoyed airplay on CBC Radio and college/public/Native American radio stations across North America, as well as hitting #3 in the TOP TEN Folk/Roots/Blues charts on 92.5 The EX FM.
MacIntyre’s career began in 1985 when she moved to Toronto after both her adoptive parents had died. Her first hit single (“Non Stopping Hip Hopping,” Moods International Records, Florida) was charted as a “hot new item” on North Miami’s Top 40 station WPOW 96FM.
Brenda MacIntyre’s second single “Rock a Talk” was featured on “The Gathering” compilation released by Attic Records at the Opera House. In 1992, the CD won a Juno Award and MacIntyre earned a Canadian Reggae Music Award nomination.
Brenda has performed and spoken at venues across North America, such as California State University, NXNE North by Northeast Music Festival and the Okanagan First Nation’s “Voices Against Violence” Conference.
With a diverse range of clients including Legal Aid Ontario, BMO, The United Nations in Canada and The Lung Association, Brenda serves business teams, universities, schools, front line workers, health professionals and Aboriginal organizations.
She has made various TV appearances, such as MuchMusic, APTN, CTV, CP24, Global and
Telelatino Network. In 2007 she was nominated for an Aboriginal People’s Choice Award and named Toronto’s Aboriginal Businesswoman of the Year.
