Heather Nova was first heard on the radio in 1994 with her album "Oyster". The album's cool, infectious tracks quickly put her on the radar of indie fans and in the charts worldwide. Since then, she has recorded critically acclaimed albums and played sold-out tours.
What has earned Heather a fiercely loyal following is, above all, her live performances. Known for her voice, which is both incredibly powerful and often described as "angelic", she plays large rock festivals with a full band just as impressively as she captivates audiences in small theaters with just a cellist as accompaniment. In the 30-plus years since her beginnings, she has toured constantly and her shows continue to sell out.
"Live music is beyond the sum of its parts," she says. "There's a magic that happens that I can't fully control. I just let go, open up and let the music flow through me. The audience brings their emotions and energy and a wonderful interplay is created"
The new tour will be an eclectic mix of acoustic, cello-driven pieces combined with synthesizers, beats and percussion. Heather will be playing a combination of brand new material from her upcoming album as well as older "fan favorites".
"Live music plays a more important role now than ever before," says Heather. "Concerts create a moment of unification, community and harmony when there is so much division in the world today."
