Malia rogers is a Canadian folk singer-songwriter, actor & multi-instrumentalist.
As a Nova Scotian making home in Ontario, Malia Rogers' maritime upbringing has led her to see music, storytelling, and community as inextricably bound. Drawing inspiration from Canadian sirens like Feist and Rose Cousins, she cultivates an introspective and honest approach to songwriting, weaving her joys and vulnerabilities into self-soothing folk anthems with swelling harmonies and warm, grounded instrumentation.
Her first professional EP, produced by Neil Whitford (Georgian Bay, Annie Sumi, Jessica Pearson & The East Wind) and slated for release in early Fall 2024 excavates her past to frame questions around love, loss, legacy, fear, anxiety, choice, and hope – all while imploring listeners to stay curious and compassionate about their own histories. Expect bluegrass and celtic undertones, vivid lyricism, warmed-honey vocals, and an ambient nod to the ghosts in the room.
Through song and story, Rogers invites you into the corners of her heart the way she would invite you into her family home on the East Coast: put down the heavy bags, rest, stay as long as you need, take something with you when you go.
