Biography

Selena Evangeline is, without question, a world-class singer.  The sounds of Ella Fitzgerald, Chaka Khan, Prince and Stevie Wonder helped shape the musician she is today.  As a multi-instrumentalist and songwriter, her songs are musical snapshots of real life and emotions, from a real woman. Those "snapshots" helped to win her an Ontario Independent Music Award for Best Urban, Barrie New Music Award as well as honourable mention in the John Lennon Song Writing Competition.  Her debut album "This Girl's Life" was featured on CTV's "Da Kink In My Hair" and her single "Lifesong" received heavy rotation on Canadian airwaves with MuchVibe and MTV1

 

By way of her travels, Selena has shared stages with Sheila E., Patrice Rushen,  Jocelyn Brown, The Nylons, Delta Goodrem, Ivete Sangalo, Lea Salonga, Latin Grammy winner Maia, and the list goes on. Recently, you may have seen Selena on stage backing Canadian icon Amanda Marshall as well as CMA winner Johnny Reid.

 

Selena’s last release, “Left Alone”, is the third in the Slaight Music/7 Arts Entertainment signature series of duets with pianist Bill King and Canada’s top vocalists. Evangeline charts her own direction focusing on songs remembered through women who made them classics - Gladys Knight, Dinah Washington, Dionne Warwick, Sarah Vaughan, Patti Labelle, Diana Ross, Billie Holiday and others. It’s her musical letter of thanks; paying homage to the great singers and songwriters who have come before us.
