MIA SHEARD

Over the course of three albums, Toronto’s Mia Sheard has seared herself into the consciousness of the Canadian music scene. Her work has been favourably compared to Mary Margaret O’Hara and Jane Siberry. Her lyrics have been likened to poetry by Margaret Atwood, called kaleidoscopic, provocative, insightful and witty; “the words of a poet”(Globe and Mail).



Mia has appeared on CTV’s Open MIke with Mike Bullard, TVO’s Studio 2, and CBC Television’s Play. Her CBC Radio appearances include This Morning, Sounds Like Canada, Bandwidth and Here and Now. She has graced the cover of NOW Magazine, toured Canada extensively, and the UK and Ireland.



Mia has appeared vocally on the following recordings: Vostok VI, Black Eyed Sue (Kurt Swinghammer); Harmelodia (Rheostatics); Through a Revolution (Dan Goldman); Cut A Man’s Heart Out (Arlene Bishop); Radio Fuse Box (Andy Stochansky); No One Ever Suspected Him of Being the Poppy Salesman (Martin Tielli); Songs of Work and Freedom (Brothers Cosmoline); Arc (Kitchenmusik); Crazy Wisdom (Chris Warren); Could’ve Been King (Blair Packham); Bitter Beauty (Jason Collett); The Unavoidable Truth (Reid Jamieson); H-wing (Kevin Hearn).



Mia is ready to record her 4th album - a follow up to "With Love and Squalor", "Reptilian" and "Anemone". She needs your help:
