Gabrielle Shonk

Gabrielle Shonk is a Canadian singer-songwriter. She received a Juno Award nomination for Adult Alternative Album of the Year at the Juno Awards of 2019 for her self-titled debut album. Although fluently bilingual, she writes songs almost entirely in English, which she attributes to having been influenced primarily by anglophone rather than francophone music. Her album does, however, include three French-language songs cowritten with Patrick Sauvageau. "Shonk has a powerful voice with echoes of Adele and Alicia Keys, and her songs are steeped in the classic singer-songwriter tradition of artists like Joni Mitchell, Carole King and Tracy Chapman." - The Gazette
