Artist Bio:
Sarah Orton is a multidisciplinary artist from the Kootenays, known for her rich expressive tone and smoky, Soul Noir style—a moody blend of 60’s ballad and alt-folk driven on her electric guitar. Influenced by the musical traditions of her Doukhobor heritage and over 15 years of performing in bands within Canada’s DIY scene, Sarah has forged varying paths in the music industry as a versatile and dynamic vocalist, songwriter, nascent producer, and diverse collaborator. Recently selected as one of five participants from the country to collaborate and present at MusicPEI’s Canadian Song Conference 2026, Sarah is excited for what the future holds with music as she continues working on her first full-length album.
Some of the fruits of her labor can also be heard in her original alt-soul 5-piece outfit Penny Shades with multiple CBC Radio plays, or sometimes sharing the stage with nationally renowned electro-folk act Moontricks, headlining numerous music festivals and sold-out venues in Western Canada.
Exploring the depths of her musicianship through her solo project, Orton’s moody soulful live performance was invited to Kaslo Jazz Etc. Festival, Woodstove Festival, Pachena Bay Festival, Tiny Lights Festival and Ignite the Arts. She also had the great privilege of opening up for acclaimed artists Ora Cogan, Shaela Miller, and Billie Z**i on their album release tours in 2024/25
