Country girl gone rogue, Shalisa, is blazing her own trail across Canada’s music scene with her unapologetic blend of soul, grit, and heart. Known for her powerhouse vocals and raw storytelling, she’s quickly become one of the most exciting emerging voices in alt-country.

Shalisa was nominated in the top 5 for Interactive Artist of the Year as well as top 5 for Emerging artist of the year for the BCCMAs in 2026. She had previously been nominated for the top 10 female artist of the year in 2025. With a sound that fuses old-school country charm and modern pop attitude, Shalisa delivers songs that hit as hard as they heal.

In the past year alone, she’s opened for some of Canada’s top country acts, including Kyle McKearney, JoJo Mason, Brayden King, Robin Ottolini, and Chad Brownlee, while also performing alongside Hillside Outlaws at the high-energy Boots & Boats Festival. Her live shows are electric — blending witty stage banter, tight harmonies, and the kind of authenticity that leaves audiences wanting more.
