The Effie Arts Collective Presents Coffee House with Special Guest Maddie StorvoldMaddie Storvold is the proverbial black sheep love child of folk singer Joan Baez and comedian Steven Wright. Her songs “could well be heard drifting out of a Greenwich Village folk club in the 1960's” (Edmonton Folk Fest). Born on an airforce base in Northern Alberta, but raised a nomad, based in the Middle East, she had traveled to over 30 countries by the time she turned 18 and moved back to Canada to complete a degree in English &amp; Philosophy. This wealth of diverse experiences and the intimate study of the craft of words can certainly be heard in the singer’s music. In February 2019, Storvold released a ballad, “Don’t Say You Love Me”, written and produced by Bryan Adams. The single shot to #1 on the country charts in less than 3 hours. As a live performer, Storvold has been described as having a "commanding stage presence, aquirky sense of humour, and a knack for capturing moments in song" (Vue Weekly) - like if Joni Mitchell did stand-up. A fast regular on the festival circuit, Storvold has brought stories and songs to the Edmonton Folk Fest, Canmore Folk Fest, Tiny Lights, Bear Creek Folk Festival, Wild Mountain Music Festival, Festival d’ete, Cavendish Beach Music Festival, Calgary Stampede, Interstellar Rodeo, and many more. She offers a catalog of tender flower folk - with a splash of piss and vinegar - at the forefront of a new generation of storytellers.
