Brodie Dawson was born in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada - ‘The Hammer’ and grew up in an environment that would prove to be her life’s classroom. Her father Brent J. Dawson, was at the heart of the city's flourishing music scene. He was a soulful vocalist and harmonica player in the Rock n Roll band ‘The Breeze’, and Brodie grew up with guitars, speakers, amps and a drum kit set up in the basement, evening rehearsals, backyard jams, and her dad’s legendary record collection spinning non-stop. Music Music Music. She absorbed it all and began to develop her own sound. Her style reflects a true love story between life and music that is constantly evolving, and it awakens and stirs up deep emotion for those who receive it.

She has shared the stage with many talented musicians such as Rick Fines, The Sojourners, George Canyon, Kira Isabella, Jake Owen, and Serena Ryder!  Her songs can be heard on SiriusXM Radio, 98.9 Jet FM, 97.3 The Eagle, Scrilltown Radio, and CBC Radio, and she has had the pleasure of being a musical guest on CBC’s The Vinyl Café with Stuart McLean. She’s twice-played Sunfest Country Music Festival, Filberg Festival in Comox, Mission Folk Festival, Yellowknife's 'Folk on the Rocks, and Serenity's Harvest Music Festival on Birch Island, among many west coast tours with her previous female trio She Could Be Trouble, who were nominated for ‘Group of the Year’ at both the Vancouver Island Music Fest as well as BC Country Music Association, and in that same year, they were also nominated for the BCCMA ‘Ray McAuley Horizon Award’, a prestigious industry 'nod' to promising artists.

Brodie calls her style a mix of 'soulful bluesy folk' with a gospel funk, a twist of pop and a twang of old-school country. True to all those genres she sings of life, love, searching and finding your way.  And finding her way, she has…  She's been turning heads and creating a buzz wherever she goes, leaving her audiences spellbound, full-hearted and smilin'.
