“Music is God’s gift to me. Everything I do is by His grace.” – Donna Kay
Since 2005 Donna Kay has garnered a total of 12 nominations in the CAMA, NAMA, WCMA, APCA and the Alberta Film and Television Awards. Her album ’The Journey’ won the 2006 Canadian Aboriginal Music Award for Best Producer/Engineer, and from the same album her hit single “Round, Round, Round” won the Best Music Video at the 2007 Canadian Aboriginal Music Awards.
Her voice and vocal range saturate the senses with pleasures that can awaken, mend and nurture the soul. Her voice transcends from a gentile persuasiveness through to an aggressive rock edge. Her performances attract an eclectic group of people of all ages and walks of life.
Singer, songwriter, percussionist, Donna Kay, knew from an early age she was destined for music with the native ghost dance drumming influencing her future. Growing up and spending most of her life on the shores of northwestern Saskatchewan’s Ministikwan Lake, the sounds of the ghost dance drumming would stay with her forever and influence her future. The music she makes is a magical blend of styles of her influences ranging from R& B to rock and roll, disco to country.
