BWE Presents: Sonia Deleo

Calgary-based singer-songwriter Sonia Deleo works in a half pitch of musical grandiosity and sensitive poetics. Capable of enormous operatic crescendos and full-hearted intimacy, her warmth, wit, and drama feel at home in all the wide-ranging genres she works in. Fusing folk, pop and rock, her masterful vocals remain at the core of her work and lift it into an enormous collection far more than the sum of its parts. Stirring ballads of love, abandonment, and redemption, a quality of storytelling shines through all of her songs, making clear a distinct personality and an unflinching point of view.
