SUMMARY:Tanika Charles And Storry
DESCRIPTION:Toronto-based 2x Juno Award nominee and Soul music power house Tanika Charles has slowly but surely inserted herself as a staple of the genre both at home and abroad. Her music revels in honesty and attitude\, her live show is high energy and endearing\, and she continues to win audiences over one album\, one stream\, and one encore at a time. Long time fans will recall her earliest recordings proclaimed that if she could\, she would spread her wings and fly. And now this Night Butterfly has proven she can soar. \nSTORRY is a multidisciplinary artist who writes and produces her music\, and is intrinsically involved in all aspects of her career from designing album covers to directing award-winning music videos. Her debut concept album ‘CH III: The Come Up’ was produced and released independently\, and was nominated for a 2021 JUNO award for Adult Contemporary Album alongside Celine Dion and Alanis Morrissette.
