Ann Vriend | BlueMonday

Description

Canadian artist Ann Vriend captivates with her expressive, soul-infused voice and music that creates a unique sound universe, blending groovy Neo-Soul with roots-oriented Singer-Songwriter Pop.
With her universal message of tolerance and empathy, she crafts a distinctive style of catchy urban soul with excursions into retro-funk.

Hailing from modest beginnings in eastern Edmonton, Canada, Vriend is not afraid to address social issues in her songs. With her own Rythm’n‘Blues style, she joins the illustrious tradition of soul musicians like Curtis Mayfield, Sly Stone, Marvin Gaye, Aretha Franklin, and contemporary artists such as Janelle Monae, Bruno Mars, and Beyoncé, who inspire both dancing and reflection.

AV (Ann Vriend) is a two-time winner of the Maple Blues Award for Songwriting; she has received the Edmonton Music Award and the Alberta Centennial Award, won the 'R&B Single of the Year' at the Edmonton Music Awards, was nominated for 'Keyboardist of the Year' at the Maple Blues Awards, and has sold over 30,000 albums at her concerts. AV is also one of the few independent artists in recent history to reach the Top 100 of the pop charts on Germany's commercial radio, the world's fourth-largest music market; she even reached number 1 on Bayern 1, one of the biggest stations. The multiple award-winning singer and songwriter knows how to excite live audiences!
