  • Bio

    When Mark Rheaume, of CBC radio, named Orit Shimoni one of his top 3 Canadian artists of that year (2006), it was in response to her debut album, Cinematic Way. Her second album, I Left the City Burning, charted for three months on earshot! (Canadian roots charts). It was also a favourite on CKUA. With two independent Canadian releases, and in true troubadour fashion, Orit has since shed all semblance of a 'regular' life, and has been traveling from town to town, performing and recording, not only in throughout Canada but in Berlin, Antwerp, and throughout Holland. An immensely prolific and versatile singer/songwriter, she is hailed for her writing (often compared to that of Leonard Cohen), as well as her moving singing voice, which has been compared to Loretta Lynn and Emmylou Harris, as well as Chrissie Hynde, Patti Smith, Margot Timmins and Neko Case. Orit has recorded two more albums while in Berlin, and though she travels solo, she is often backed up by local musicians in various cities. ..

From town to town, country to country, Orit continues to troubadour her way into hearts, with the help of bassists, drummers, violinist, electric guitar players, mandolin players, and even didgeridoo players that she meets in different locations. From solo shows to six piece bands, each show is a different experience, as is each album.

    Lots of freaky coinidences when I'm traveling. So far, Zappa, Wicca, and lost and found dogs have been coming up a lot. Weird. Carry on....

  2. Little Birdie

    Touring for me is like getting to live fast forward and appreciate in slow motion. I really, truly love this. It's utter magic.

  3. Little Birdie

    I can't quite explain the 'vibe' tonight without the bizarre drunken quotations, but wow. Boisterous male-centric crowd #waitforthememoirs

  4. Little Birdie

    Oh yes. And happy mother's day to my own fine intelligent and inspiring mother, but also to my several road mums. Lucky to have so many!

  5. Little Birdie

    Magical night in Frieswijk, and today I'm in Veghel. #placesIveneverheardofuntilnow!

    Hey Orit,


    i just read your essay on Nora's website.
    Fantastic stuff! Wonderful to read your inner ponderings and know, that despite the fact that my memories (both collective and personal) differ from yours, I can relate fully to your processes ;-)
    Hope Berlin is treating you well, love and I look forward to seeing you next time I'm there.
    Love
