From Stittsville, Ontario, Canada

Talk

Performing: Friday September 5th

“Show love to everyone you meet, because you don’t know what they’re going through or where  they’ve come from.”

This is the guiding principle for TALK’s life. The singer-songwriter exudes positive energy, colour and enthusiasm, bringing a smile to the face of everyone he connects with.

TALK is eccentric, flashy and colourful, and he’s crafted a sound equally unique. He launched himself on a rocket with his debut single “Run Away To Mars”. Originally written at 3am on a  lonely night, the song has connected with listeners all over the world: earning 400+ million of streams, rising to #1 on the Spotify Global Viral 50, and reaching multi-platinum certification around the world, including the United States, Canada, Sweden, Norway and more.

The track leads his debut album — Lord of the Flies & Birds & Bees — alongside viral hit “A  Little Bit Happy” and rock anthem “Wasteland” which roared up the alternative and rock radio charts in Canada. Executively produced by Justin Tranter (Miley Cyrus, Imagine Dragons) and  released October 2023, the album is already certified Platinum in Canada.

The album propelled TALK to five JUNO nominations and his first win for Breakthrough Artist of the Year at the 2024 JUNO Awards, where he also performed on the national TV broadcast. TALK has been featured in a number of television performances, including for the 2024 NHL All Star game which was broadcast around North America.

He has earned praise from Rolling Stone, American Songwriter, and People, performed on the Late Late Show with James Corden, and interviewed with legendary broadcaster George Stromboulopoulos on Apple Music radio. His music has been licensed several times, including  twice in Grey’s Anatomy, in Sony Playstation’s MLB The Show 2023, and Fortnite radio, and he recently created an original theme song for CBS’ new show Tracker.

TALK has shared stages with superstars including Imagine Dragons, Luke Combs, Shania Twain and The Lumineers, and in summer 2023 he supported Young The Giant and Milky Chance on 26 shows around the United States. He’s played festivals around the world including Lollapalooza (Chicago and Berlin), RADAR Switzerland, Boston Calling, Ohana, Festival d'été  de Québec, Calgary Stampede and more.
