The summer series, Music Over the Marsh, is pleased to preset Kristine St. Pierre on Friday, Aug 23rd at 7 pm.

Kristine St-Pierre is a bilingual folk singer-songwriter with soul-searching ballads and a rollicking bluesy flair.  Described as a ‘chansonnière’ with a traveling heart,’ Kristine sings her life with passion, vulnerability and authenticity. She has released two bilingual albums, followed by a francophone album called La promesse in late 2017. The album consists of six catchy pop songs, all the while remaining true to her introspective and sensitive folk style. She received a Canadian Folk Music Award nomination in 2018. She is also a 5-time nominee for Francophone artist of the year by the Country Music Association of Ontario. Kristine is currently working on a fourth album, which she plans to release in the fall of 2023.

Kristine is also a strong advocate for equality, taking every opportunity to use her voice and expertise to advance women’s and girls’ rights. Her song “Les femmes” has received airplay on CBC’s Q with Tom Power as part of a commemoration of the 1989 Montreal École Polytechnique massacre. She also counts herself lucky for having had the opportunity to perform in several countries in Sub-Saharan Africa, Ukraine and most recently in Belgium and France.
