| NEW CANUCK MUSIC
Bio: Over the past 8 years, Wayfie has been working with talented artists in Canada and abroad - developing his career from the bedroom. At only 22 years of age, Wayfie is an extraordinarily talented multi-instrumentalist, songwriter (winner of Music BC’s Canadian Songwriting Challenge 2020), producer, and audio engineer. It all started with nearly getting trapped in Paris during a global pandemic. “By the time 2020 arrived, I no longer felt a sense of purpose doing what I had once claimed to love. I decided to finally stop, drop, and get lost across Europe with my girlfriend. It took getting stuck in hotel rooms for me to realize I wanted to share my story with the rest of the world.” More Wayfie here: https://open.spotify.com/artist/06W2ZAfvzFskEWy9cNTTNB?si=BL64bu5qQoKV-edSnfe8bQ |
