A 'Live-off-my-(creaky)-living-room-floor" recording of a tune I wrote this fall. Inspired by Norah Jones' cover of "Turn Me On" & others of that genre, here's my answer to a friend's challenge to write a Seduction Song. Thanks to Bryan Moss for the help with the arrangement! The guitar is my friendly, warm, Hoefner parlour guitar - a family heirloom that made its way across the ocean from 1930s Germany. 

Sonja Seiler - Show Me Where It Hurts

Sonja has enjoyed singing for others since she held an audience captive singing "O Canada" at the tender age of three in the gazebo on Citadel Hill. For years she trained in classical voice and opera, and participated in the Vermont International Opera Festival. She has lent her voice to many a tune and collaborated with a variety of musicians across multiple genres. 

Sonja started writing her own music in university and composed the music for her own one-woman show that she toured across Ontario and her full-length musical The Highwayman, whose in-concert performance premiered at the Toronto Centre for the Arts. 

Highly influenced by Leonard Cohen, Stephen Sondheim, and a teenage obsession with listening to Sarah McLachlan in the dark, for Sonja songwriting is often the only way her heart gets a word in edgewise.
