Alternative-folk singer/songwriter Kaeley Jade crafts full-hearted songs that dig deep. Growing
up on the outskirts of North America’s most northern metropolis, the Edmonton-based Métis
artist has been sculpted by icy winter winds, warm summer breezes, and sweeping prairie skies.
Her Canadian Folk Music Award-winning debut, Turpentine, earned international press, charted
across Canadian radio (including a #1 on the Indigenous Music Countdown), and was featured in
numerous film and television productions (such as Hockey Night in Canada and Warrior Up!).
Whether through gently textured acoustic ballads or rip-roaring full band cuts, Kaeley’s powerful
voice and vivid imagery capture the depths of life’s most challenging moments with sincerity and
precision. With over 150 performances across Canada since 2023, Kaeley’s deep love of
storytelling and dynamic stage presence shine through whether she performs solo, duo, or with
her five-piece band. Kaeley Jade’s forthcoming album, The Great Unknown, is an earthy and
cinematic plunge into the dread, conflict, and uncertainty that arises when we reach a turning
point. Produced by JUNO Award-winner Hill Kourkoutis, The Great Unknown invites listeners
to release what no longer serves them, embrace the unpredictability of life, and celebrate the
beauty found within the ever-shifting tides of experience.
