Blue Heart On Your Sleeve

Wild One

Portuguese Canadian, Awna Teixeira has been touring steady in different bands since 2001. While handling the many instruments with ease, Awna’s songs convey that classic old time feel of back porch spirituals. Crossing borders with her Portuguese upbringing, you can also hear her tales of heartache and travel through accordion driven European folk.
Performing primarily on banjo, accordion, guitar Awna has added playing percussion with her feet both on Tambourine and an old suitcase. She is releasing her second full length album ‘Wild One’ March 2015.

“Dark vivid lyrical imagery, beautifully layered
instrumentation, delicate yet fierce vocals”

Awna Teixeira might have been critically acclaimed for her debut album ‘Where The Darkness Goes’ (2012) and the follow-up EP ‘Thunderbird’ (2013), after fourteen years of touring and recording with multiple bands including Po’ Girl, but it’s her upcoming new album ‘Wild One’ that she’ll hopefully be remembered for.
