Indie pop powerhouse Begonia launched into the Canadian music scene with her critically acclaimed 2017 EP Lady In Mind. Begonia received media praise, numerous awards, and two #1 songs on Canada’s CBC national radio chart. Yet to her fans, she felt like music’s best kept secret.  

Begonia released her audacious debut LP Fear in September 2019. Fear was longlisted for the Polaris Prize and spent 10 straight weeks as the #1 album on !earshot’s Top 50 chart. Two of her singles were named CBC Music Fan Favourites, and songs from the album have appeared in productions on Netflix & Oprah Winfrey Network. Begonia has been touring major festivals and playing to sold-out audiences at small clubs across North America. On stage, Begonia dresses in a bold, bright-coloured wardrobe; it’s how she feels most powerful, “almost like a superhero version of myself.” 

Begonia was set to make her European touring debut in May 2020. Due to COVID-19, the remaining dates on Begonia’s Fear Tour were cancelled upon arrival in New York. Just two weeks earlier, cameras captured Begonia’s five consecutive sold-out shows in her hometown of Winnipeg. The explosive performances captured the imagination of a whole city, and The Fear Tour (Live) will be available  January 29, 2021 on all streaming platforms.

If you follow me on Soundcloud, you should know that I'm NOT the artist/s of the sets or songs I post. I'm a harvester of what I consider good, great, and awesome music by those just trying to get a little ear time from a random listener. So as I harvest and organize songs and artists in my lists, I've basically done the work for you. Sit back and enjoy the music, leave a comment, visit the artists' social sites, and by all means, purchase their work. And thank you to the artists who sow their seeds of talent. Without you, there would be no harvest.
