Madison Violet is a Canadian Juno-nominated duo,
consisting of Lisa MacIsaac and Brenley MacEachern. The pair, who
grew up on rural Cape Breton Island, came together musically in the late 1990s,
over many evenings in Brenley's grandmother's kitchen, which was always
bursting with food, family, friends, and instruments.
Influenced by
their maritime heritage, they began creating music together that had roots
firmly planted in their past, but with contemporary and modern elements
generously overlaid. Categorizing Madison Violet's music is an impossible task,
in that one can hear elements of folk, singer-songwriter, pop, indie,
bluegrass, and country flawlessly interwoven throughout.
They are
exceptional story tellers, skilled multi-instrumentalists, and together,
perfect harmonists, and have released 11 albums together. Their latest record
"eleven" was self-recorded and produced, ranking MacIssac and MacEachern among
the less than 2.1% of female-identifying music producers in the industry.
The musicians have accolades for their work, including a JUNO
nomination, and a Canadian Folk Music Award for Best Vocal Group Album
of the Year. Their music is consistently played across Canada and
throughout the world, and they receive glowing reviews for both their studio
work, and live performances.
MacIsaac and MacEachern currently live in
and around Toronto, Ontario, tour internationally, identify as members of the
2SLGBTQIA+ community, and are fervent advocates for social justice.
