Skye Wallace
Skye Wallace is a critically acclaimed Canadian singer-songwriter whose music blends folk, rock, and punk with an unapologetically fierce and poetic edge. Known for her commanding stage presence and powerful voice, Wallace crafts songs that are emotionally raw, politically charged, and rooted in storytelling.
Originally from Vancouver and now based in Toronto, Skye Wallace’s sound is often compared to artists like Patti Smith, Laura Marling, or early PJ Harvey — weaving gritty rock energy with introspective lyricism. Her music explores themes of identity, feminism, grief, rebellion, and the untamed landscapes of Canada, often drawing from historical events or personal narratives.
Wallace gained national attention with her self-titled 2019 album, which included tracks like “There Is a Wall” and “Coal in Your Window”, showcasing both her literary songwriting and her ability to switch from haunting ballads to full-throttle rock anthems. Her 2022 album Terribly Good pushed that even further — a confident, guitar-driven record that balances vulnerability and defiance.
On stage, Skye is a force — whether solo with an acoustic guitar or backed by a full band, she delivers every song with conviction and fire. She’s toured extensively across Canada and Europe, sharing stages with artists like Matt Mays, Crown Lands, and The Rural Alberta Advantage.
Wallace is not just one of Canada’s most compelling rising rock voices — she’s a storyteller who isn’t afraid to dig into the uncomfortable and unspoken, all while delivering songs that hit hard and stay with you.
