Overview

Are you looking for a unique and engaging performer for a wedding, funeral, or other event?

I am a classically trained vocalist (Grade 9 Royal Conservatory) with a flexible soprano voice and a passion for performing. I have over 10 years of experience performing at concerts, open mics, Kiwanis Festival events, and in musical theatre productions. My repertoire is versatile - I am as comfortable performing a folk ballad as I am singing a broadway hit or some classic rock. I can accompany myself on guitar and piano but I am also happy to work with an accompanist.

I am also a song-writer, and as part of my service I'd love to work with you to create a personalized song for your special day.

Professional and Talented Singer

Clarissa was there for my wife's 50th birthday. She was excellent throughout the booking process, on time and very flexible. She adapted her set's playlist based on my request and played beautifully. My wife and son both were able to sing along certain songs, it was amazing :)

Hit the perfect tone

Clarissa was wonderful to work with! We briefly discussed the tone of our corporate event and she nailed the vibe we were looking for. She is clearly wonderfully talented and knew all of the songs we suggested.

Would highly recommend her and would hire her again for future events.

So glad I booked Clarissa

I couldn't be happier to give Clarissa 5 stars. I booked her to perform as I proposed to my fiancee. On relatively short notice she was able to learn a few covers of meaningful songs in our relationship as well as play a few originals. She even uploaded samples of the covers for me to listen to before the performance! I found the process very professional. Quick communication, arrived ahead of time, and was just another light of positivity on our special day. Oh yeah, she also has an incredible voice!
All the best!

About

I am an Ottawa-based singer songwriter. I accompany myself on guitar and have over 10 years of experience as a trained vocalist. I have a Grade 9 level certificate with the Royal Conservatory of music for classical voice. Now I perform my own original work along with pop and folk covers. Artists I admire and cover include Joni Mitchell, Bruce Springsteen, Bob Dylan, Madonna, Nina Simone, Buffy St. Marie, and Beyonce. I try to keep my tastes broad and eclectic. I use music to celebrate the people and places I love and to express the weird and wonderful inner workings of my own brain.
