A B O U T

At the age of 17, Marysa stepped into the world of musical theatre after being offered the lead role of ‘Eponine’ in her high school’s musical theatre production of ‘Les Misérables.’ Marysa was then scouted to take the lead at a Southern Alberta Theater Company. After a successful and noteworthy run, Marysa moved to Edmonton, Alberta, where she enrolled in private vocal studies at Grant MacEwan College and The Alberta College Conservatory of Music. In addition to her studies, songwriting and collaborating with local musicians/producers became her focus, along with performing live throughout the city.

Setting her sights higher and seeking out a more dynamic music scene, in 2008, Marysa moved to London, England. This move allowed her to be able to explore her limitless love for many genres and eras in music. She spent three years writing and performing her original compositions throughout London, frequenting world-famous music venues such as The Troubadour and The Vortex Jazz Club, earning her rave reviews. She also competed in the Open Mic UK Competition, where she beat out thousands of hopefuls, making it to the area finals.

In a big move back to Canada, Marysa took Vancouver and the West Coast by storm. Taking her songwriting and music to new levels, she spent the last four years recording at Demitone Productions, working in collaboration with the notably talented local producer/musician David Sikula. Marysa has also performed twice at the TD Vancouver International Jazz Festival, and performed for five years throughout the city alongside some of Vancouver’s finest musicians. In 2016, Marysa moved to Toronto, ON, with the intention of breaking further into the Canadian music scene as she continues to build her catalogue of music.

Marysa proves to be a richly talented and unique songstress who is both refined and down to earth. This medley of traits can be heard in her music, seen in her style and the way she interacts with her fans. Vocally, she finds the perfect balance of tenderness and strength, which in turn radiates warmth into her music. Now, pulling from all aspects of her diverse internal repertoire, she has introduced her own sound. Whether she’s on stage or in the studio, Marysa’s talent, versatility, and drive are endless. Her passion for her craft and her love for music is and will always be her instrument for success.
