In the vibrant heart of downtown Ottawa, a fresh talent is bursting onto the music scene with unbridled energy and determination. Meet Balm Angel, a pop sensation who refuses to be confined by industry norms or expectations. With a voice that echoes raw emotion and authenticity, Balm is on a mission to carve out his own niche in the music world.
A Lifelong Obsession
Balm’s love affair with music began at the tender age of four, when he was entranced by the sounds that filled the air. As the grandson of a violinist and nephew of church choir singers, music was woven into the fabric of his family life. However, for Balm, it was more than just a tradition – it was an all-consuming passion. He vividly recalls being unable to sleep as a child when music was playing, and as a teenager, he’d sneak into clubs to experience the rhythm and energy of live performances.
Chasing the Dream
Despite the odds being stacked against him, Balm refused to give up on his dreams. With no label backing, limited financial resources, and little support from home, he persevered, driven by an unwavering belief in his talent. The journey was far from smooth, with falling outs with his father, living on the streets, and struggling to make ends meet. Yet, Balm’s determination never wavered.
A Breakthrough Moment
In 2016, Balm booked his first studio session, laying down eight tracks in a single day. The result was a collection of raw, emotional songs that showcased his unique voice and style. Now, with his debut single “Tuesday $ Thursday” dropping on all major platforms, Balm Angel is making his presence known in the music industry.
Unapologetic and Unstoppable
Balm’s rise to stardom won’t be fueled by gimmicks or comparisons to others. Instead, he’s focused on being true to himself and his art. With a clear vision of becoming a music icon, he’s willing to walk the lonely road to success, barefoot if necessary. As he says, “This isn’t for everyone. It’s for the chosen.”
What’s next
With “Tuesday $ Thursday” marking the beginning of his journey, Balm Angel has a slew of exciting projects in the pipeline. From album releases to features and live shows, this talented young artist is poised to take the music world by storm. Watch this space, as Balm Angel is unstoppable, and his story is only just beginning.
