| Stephanie Bird has fulfilled
a long-awaited dream by releasing her first CD project "The Distance".
The original songs blend Stephanie’s voice and acoustic guitar with imaginative
accompaniment by a number of exceptional studio musicians. Her musical
style has been described in the following ways:
"A warm, acoustic folk sound mixed
with contemporary style and freshness."
"Folk music with hints of Latin rhythm
and pop."
A Canadian-born artist raised in Brighton,
Ontario, Stephanie was drawn to the acoustic guitar at age ten, and her
musical life grew through strong participation in school music programs
and was further developed at university where the creative atmosphere encouraged
and inspired her to write songs.
In 1990 Stephanie added another musical
facet to her career learning the piano tuner and technician trade under
the private tutelage of master technician Stan Jones (formerly of Heintzman
and Company, Toronto). Piano restoration work allows Stephanie to maintain
a strong interest and appreciation for acoustic instruments alive and well
in an ever- growing electronic age.
Currently living in Brighton, Stephanie
is writing music in preparation for another recording experience. Stay
tuned!
