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. She cultivates an introspective and personal approach to songwriting, weaving her joys and vulnerabilities into self-soothing folk lullabies with swelling harmonies and warm, grounded instrumentation. 

Malia's first upcoming EP, produced by Neil Whitford (Georgian Bay, Annie Sumi, Jessica Pearson & The East Wind) excavates her past for enduring themes of love, grief, legacy, fear, and hope – all while imploring listeners to stay compassionate about their own stories. Expect bluegrass and celtic undertones, vivid lyricism, warmed-honey vocals, and an ambient nod to the ghosts in the room.

Through song and story, Malia 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.

“In true folk tradition, [Malia’s] melodies are as memorable as her words, and the two form a tight bond. But most of all, her vulnerable honesty reminds listeners to be as well.”

“Malia Rogers’ incredible voice was highlighted in “Sonny’s Dream” and “The Mary Ellen Carter”. Her open-throated and heartfelt offerings were enhanced by her percussive work throughout.”
