The music, energy and optic of this performance will ignite a love and nostalgia for the songs of the incredible Amy Winehouse. Passion of Amy Winehouse is performed with a stellar A-list of vocalists and musicians well known across Canada. Capturing the essence of Amy, this production features very notable and awarded Saskatchewan vocalist, Heidi Munro. This show is a celebration of a gifted and
raw artist in the truest form, as a songwriter, vocalist, performer, and deep, troubled, passionate and driven young woman. The depth of Amy’s honest, controversial, brilliant and beautiful artistry is beyond what many can understand. Many of Amy’s jazz and hip-hop infused poetic songs of very raw personal reflection will be featured.
“You know, I’m not religious but there is nothing more pure than the relationship you have with your God— there is nothing stronger than that, apart from your love of music.” - Amy Winehouse
Along with creating a top shelf AMY audience experience, the hope is to contribute to the awareness of the impact and relationship between addictions in all forms, domestic abuse, depression, and mental health. The psychological and physical pressures of pursuing a career in music are rarely discussed or understood, yet judged very harshly in the media, and generally so in public eye.
“ Producing this show was a journey, sometimes scary and emotional, sometimes exhausting and uplifting. The only way to make something happen, is to make it happen. We hope you enjoy the songs and hear the stories in her music.”
-Heidi
