Shella-Ann LaMermaid

Folk electricity. Violin, guitar, percussion, didgeridoo layered live, built from tradition, shaped by the road.
Traditional Québécois, classical, bluegrass, old-time, ragtime , she moves between worlds without losing her footing. Intimate enough for a salon, wild enough for a festival, tender enough for the moment someone says yes.
Music that makes grandmothers sway and children spin. That catches you off guard and settles something in your chest. For every age, every room, every reason to gather.
Good energy. Every time.

Born on a glacial winter night above the Saguenay Fjord, to the sound of Loreena McKennitt and the flutter of great moths, Shella-Ann arrived already listening.
She learned to read music before words. Raised between a percussionist father and a singer-songwriter mother, sound was her first language. The violin claimed her early and never let go.
Trained in traditional Québécois music at Cégep de Joliette, then shaped by seven months wandering the world with a backpack — she came back knowing exactly what she was here to do.
Her live performances weave violin, guitar, percussion, and didgeridoo into music that is at once ancient and alive. It moves you. It roots you. It reminds you of something you forgot you knew.
She doesn’t just perform. She creates a moment.

Line check and go of a violin with direct pick-up, and a DY that need à 48+ volts(fantom power), and a AK411 actif mic for the foot stepinck mic. And à SM57 mic on feet for the voice. If you prefer the electro version, just need electricity for plug in the , speaker and sober, Mixing tabel and an enjoying music dancers and pepoels.
