Canadian singer/songwriter Colleen Dauncey's music blends memorable indie-pop hooks with intimate storytelling and lush harmonies.
After a decade as a composer, songwriter, and collaborator, Colleen's newfound solo voice emerged from the perfect storm of a devastating breakup and the solitude of lockdown. Forced to confront her demons completely on her own for the first time, Colleen turned to the power and comfort of songwriting. By the time she made it through to the other side of heartbreak she had written an entire EP - equal parts tumultuous and optimistic, but deeply personal from beginning to end.
A captivating vocalist, multi-instrumentalist, and live-looping artist, Colleen has been sharing her music through livestreamed concerts. Since she began in January 2021, Colleen has connected with thousands of listeners and found an unbelievably supportive community of new fans & friends.
Colleen's music has been featured on the Canadian classic TV show Hockey Night in Canada, in the film Me Him Her, and on the web series Other Men and Avocado Toast. She also co-wrote the theme song for the Wondery podcast "Bunga Bunga", narrated by comedian Whitney Cummings.
Colleen is also a musical theatre composer, and together with lyricist Akiva Romer-Segal she has penned the scores to the musicals The Louder We Get, Going Under, Bremen Rock City, and GROW. For more about Colleen & Akiva's musicals visit www.colleenandakiva.com
