“Filling the time between songs with precise and equally poetic
stories and anecdotes, Ariane wraps you in her intimate world.
In the end, you are left with the feeling that she sang just for you,
and you long to follow blindly to wherever she may lead you next."
– Rebecca Anderson (F&M)

"Years ago, I made a pledge to myself that I would make a living through the things I could make. Being a Canadian singer songwriter bought a few groceries, but it didn't pay all the bills. So, I started doing graphic design for my fellow musicians (posters, CD covers and inserts, business cards and logos). It was feast or famine so then I added on video editing and made music videos for friends... as well as educational and corporate spots. There was also my childhood passion for photography which eventually morphed into capturing everything I found interesting on tape then on data cards. I've also used my voice to create. Not only music and albums but also narration for e-learning, commercials, radio, and television.
In the last few years I've made YouTube content, created a documentary-series on aspiring singer-songwriters in their golden years, and become the midwife to other artists' projects while nourishing my new mantra 'Balancia!' who's spirit I keep alive by balancing the work I do for other with simultaneously working on my upcoming singles and albums.
Creativity at every turn and an insatiable appetite for learning and creating. Organized chaos.
I ask those who cross my path to leap with me. To head in new directions. To explore. To discover."
