About the artist
“The black sheep lovechild and Steven Wright and Joan Baez, ushering in a new era of songwriters” 
“Maddie’s songs are political and deeply empathetic – they could well be heard drifting out of a Greenwich Village Folk Club in the 1960’s” – Edmonton Folk Fest With the goal of “uniting the hippies and the cowboys” as Willie Nelson once did decades ago, Storvold is quickly finding her sure-footing in the whiskey-soaked badlands at the intersection of Outlaw Country and Alt-Folk. In 2019, she won CTV’s The Launch, receiving the opportunity to record and release 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, and peaked at #3 on the overall charts, surpassing Lady Gaga and Pink. This successful single only supplemented her already-acclaimed catalogue of mature songs and dedicated fanbase in Western Canada. She has showcased her songcraft at the Edmonton Folk Fest, Canmore Folk Fest, Tiny Lights, Bear Creek Folk Fest, Tiny Lights, North Country Fair, and Wild Mountain. Storvold offers a catalogue of songs saturated with candour and depth, a lighthearted vulnerability, and a splash of piss and vinegar at the forefront of a new generation of storytellers.
