With roots in a musical household in Halifax, Nova Scotia, SHEAL picked up piano, guitar, and violin as a child, before finding her call to songwriting at age seventeen. 

She started committing more to her craft throughout her twenties, writing alongside friends and musicians on the East Coast. Following a move to Toronto in 2016, she released her debut EP and is now set to release her sophomore album, Courage Again, in January 2022.

The album’s first single, a stripped back piano and guitar led piece of introspection, is “Dark.” SHEAL wrote the track when she was feeling a lot of resentment towards someone and was beginning to realize that all the negative energy she had towards them was actually harming her more than anyone else.
