DAPHNE, an indie pop artist and songwriter based in Ontario, Canada, captivates with euphoric melodies and expressive language that urges listeners to crank up the volume and roll down their windows. Winner of the 2024 SOCAN Foundation Young Songwriters Award and “Ones to Watch” recipient in 2023, her songwriting shines on BBC's “Boarders” (seasons 1 & 2). Catch her music on Sirius XM’s The Verge!

 

She ignited the main stage at Oshawa’s Convergence Festival and sold out the iconic El Mocambo. This year, she is honoured to take the stage at NXNE’s 30th anniversary. With a growing community of 75K+ followers on social media, almost half a million streams with only three singles released, and viral content reaching upwards of 6 million views, DAPHNE’s fiery ascent shows no signs of slowing. She is set to release her debut EP, followed by a fresh wave of indie pop anthems in 2025.

 

Songwriting serves as her therapy, allowing her to explore internal struggles through upbeat structures, inspiring herself and her audience to approach life with a lighter heart. Listen to DAPHNE’s music and allow yourself to dance all your overwhelming feelings away
