Brandi Vezina

About

Brandi Vezina is a Red River Metis singer/songwriter with roots intertwined with classic country and rock. Vezina is an animal advocate, leaning on the side of outlaw. She’s an MCMA award winning artist who writes & sings about what she knows, lives, and loves. 

Brandi is getting festive this Holiday season with the original single, "No More Tears This Christmas." Vezina and her bandmates set out to write something catchy & lighthearted with a little bit of cheekiness.

Vezina says, "Romantic songs are not quite in my wheelhouse. however, my band and I were on a writing trip and had fun writing this one together. Christmas cat sweaters, Santa hats, and people singing carols together were my inspiration."

She is the recent winner of the Manitoba Country Music Association Awards NCI Indigenous Country Music Award. She was named one of Front Porch Music’s “10 Indigenous Country Artists You Should Know.” In 2023 Vezina was also nominated for the Summer Solstice Indigenous Music Awards’ Metis Artist/Group of the Year.

Brandi’s most recent single, “Kiss Mine”, took her songwriting to another level including a co-write from Warner Nashville’s Styles Haury (Luke Bryan “Country On ') and Jarrod Kompier. Brandi says, “I came into this writing session and I wanted to tell people exactly where to go. It’s not everyday you walk into a room with signed Nashville songwriters and write something you mean.”

With even more Nashville-based co-writes complete and a new EP planned for 2024, Brandi plans on bringing her lively show to even more stages and she is definitely one that audiences won’t soon forget.
