Awarded Young Performer of the Year and Emerging Artist of the Year at the 2024 Canadian Folk Music Awards, Mia Kelly has performed at festivals across Canada and has toured the UK with Australian Duo “Charm of Finches”. Performing in both French and English, Kelly enthrals listeners with a distinctive blend of Folk, Rock, and Blues and is making her mark in the folk music scene.
