Mimi O'Bonsawin
Presented by MIFO
Mimi O’Bonsawin, a contemporary folk and roots singer-songwriter, represents various traditions with her original rhythms and story-driven songs. She draws on her Franco-Ontarian and Abenaki roots to transport audiences to the heart of the forest with her intoxicating melodies and introspective lyrics.
The ethereal quality of her music, with layers of percussion punctuated by surprising yet enchanting harmonies, make you feel the music rather than just hear it.
Her duo performances, with her partner Ryan Schurman on drums, demonstrate a team dynamic and musical freshness that makes for an uplifting audience experience.
