MACKINLEY BOURNE
Mackinley Bourne, a singer-songwriter from Vancouver, currently studying at Berklee College of Music. A recording artist with new releases like Memory Box, Genevieve, and If I let you, Mackinley has performed across Vancouver and Canada, including singing the anthem for Rugby Canada at BC Place in front of 20,000 fans. Her music blends gut-wrenching ballads and scream-along rock songs.

JESS A GIRL
Jess a Girl is an independent Canadian alternative-pop artist based in Haida Gwaii, British
Columbia, whose earlier releases appeared under the name Jessica Mai. Her songs pair
bright, synth-led pop with candid writing that leaves room for vulnerability, humor, and the
occasional absurd detail, focusing on small emotional moments with honesty and charm.
Jess has a long history of performing and songwriting and has spent the last few years
teaching herself music production. Since late 2024, regular TikTok Live sessions built mostly
around original-song requests have helped her grow a loyal online community, turning live
interaction into part of the creative ecosystem without replacing the songs at the center of it.
