BIO
Her name is Augusta, but you can call her “Gus” and she was destined for the stage. Growing up in
Toronto Ontario, Canada on a solid diet of eclectic music acts such as Led Zeppelin, Jimi Hendrix
and Shania Twain shaped her unique country-rock sound. This sound, accompanying her incredible
vocal talent, and mixed with an energetic, engaging stage presence, has made her the darling of the stage
everywhere she goes. Her hard work is paying off, as this up-and-coming star has already left her mark in
the country scene, winning the North American Country Music Association International (NACMAI)
“New Country Vocalist of the Year 2016” award, the NACMAI “New Country CD of the Year 2016”
award, “New Country Songwriter of the Year 2016” award, “Traditional Country Songwriter of the Year
2016, award and was one of the Top-7 featured artists on ole’s “On The Spot” competition in 2015.
The last year has been a busy year for Augusta. Splitting her time between her home in Nashville and
her home in Canada, she works hard in the studio, songwriting and recording new music while
continuing to develop her artistry, building relationships with publishers and promoters and learning the
business side of the music industry. When not working in the studio, she spends much of her time
travelling and performing for Canadian and American country fans, sharing the stage with notable
country acts such as Trace Adkins, Big and Rich, and Michael Ray, among others.
