Gracie Jet is back at Heartwood to celebrate the release of her debut album, Smile. Known for her electric live shows and intimate, story-driven songwriting, Gracie brings her folk-rock sound to the stage for a special night celebrating the release of her first full-length record! Gracie Jet is a storytelling folk-rock powerhouse who routinely wins over audiences with her electric energy and infectious charm. Another term that describes her is multi-faceted. Gracie is not just an artist and performer, but also a practicing nurse. She toiled tirelessly on the front lines of the COVID-19 pandemic, overworked and under-equipped. Those experiences changed her, giving her a humble and pragmatic view of the world, which comes across in her songwriting. Her lyrics often feel like journal entries — brave and intimate glimpses of her ever-changing life.
In her short career she has amassed a loyal following through a captivating live show and her catalog of singles. Now, with her sound refined into a bulletproof artistic ethos, Gracie’s debut album Smile is Out Now and she’s excited to celebrate the beginning of this new chapter with her album release show at Heartwood Hall, joined by special guests Madison Galloway and Saundra Young. It’s a night of music, storytelling, and celebration as Gracie brings Smile to life on stage.
Madison Galloway Hailing from small town Fergus, Ontario, Madison Galloway has been making a name for herself as a must-see act. She charms audiences with her refreshing original tunes, while delivering her signature bluesy roots-rock sound, hallmarked by her soulful voice and guitar prowess, and bolstered by her dynamic and talented band. She’s brought her high-energy, charismatic performance to hundreds of stages, both nationally and abroad, including prominent festivals like Kitchener Blues Festival and Riverfest Elora, and sharing the spotlight with acclaimed artists such as 54-40 and Jack de Keyzer, among others.
Kicking off her musical journey with the release of her debut EP in 2015, Madison continued to impress with her full-length album Moon & Mercury (2019), earning accolades as a Blues & Roots Radio International Song Contest finalist. In August 2022, she unveiled a new single “Open Your Eyes,” in anticipation of her upcoming album, which swiftly became her most popular track yet, surpassing 145K streams on Spotify alone. The song found its place on significant playlists such as Spotify’s “Modern Blues Rock” and Joe Bonamassa’s “Cutting Edge Blues”. Madison’s achievements culminated in a noteworthy triumph as she was honoured with the title of “Southern Rock Artist of the Year” at the prestigious Josie Music Awards (Nashville, TN) in 2023. With Madison’s highly anticipated sophomore album out now, she continues to captivate audiences with her unmistakable sound.
