Valmy is Newfoundland-based singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist from Ontario who’s been following the ocean and making home on the East Coast. Exploring themes of wonder, loss, and healing, she uses her folk-influenced music to tell stories about loving and stumbling your way through the dark., Valmy creates and performs by weaving nature-inspired melodic swells and atmospheric harmonies with her contemplative writing.
This is demonstrated through her debut full-length album ‘The In Between’, independently released in September 2023 and warmly received by listeners, with a thoughtful review by Tony Ploughman of Fred’s Records: “The rhythms and melodies wrap around the mind and soul like a lovingly patched quilt…There is a cohesiveness to this full album offering meditative musings on balancing one’s own mental state in harmony with nature, the songs providing a methodical process to achieve that balance. And the underlying intensity to follow through on the beckoning of one’s thoughts and emotions to create is constant…Deftly produced, engineered and mixed, “The In Between” is one of 2023’s finest NL Releases”.
.
Award-winning singer-songwriter Catherine Kennedy invites you to join her on the long way home. Any story worth telling deserves the time it takes to travel along the nostalgic route, and Catherine’s soulful lyrics and bluesy tones will transport you directly there.
One music-lover praised how “the beautiful quality and range of Catherine’s voice pairs perfectly with her gift of storytelling. Catherine's music makes you feel part of something bigger. Her songs always seem as though they're written for you.”
Following hot on the heel's of Catherine Kennedy's Harvest Jazz and Blues performance (with McKinley, Morrison & Williams) opening for the legendary Victor Wooten & the Wooten Brothers, come out to hear her on the Haven Music Hall stage!
