My Story

A ‘YOUNG PERFORMER’ TO KNOW ABOUT…
Tuva Making Winnipeg Folk Festival Debut
July 4, 2018 (Winnipeg MB) -- Teenage musician Tuva Bergstrom will make her Winnipeg Folk Festival debut this weekend as a featured performer in the Stingray Young Performer’s Program.
On Friday, July 6, a roster of emerging musicians from across Canada, ranging in age from 14 to 24, will perform on the Shady Grove stage. At only 15, Tuva will undoubtedly be one of the youngest up there. But you certainly wouldn’t guess that when you hear her music.
ABOUT TUVA
Her mature sound defies a youthful age. Her profound wisdom suggests an old soul. Her performance exudes a confidence found only in seasoned musicians. When you meet Tuva Bergstrom for the first time and experience her natural-born talent, you’ll find it hard to believe she’s only 15. But then she’ll reveal a dose of childlike excitement, talking a mile-a-minute about her favourite bands, latest crush, and cool fashions… and you’ll realize that yes indeed, she’s only 15.
A teenage phenom from Winnipeg, Tuva has been creating music through the Just TV program at Broadway Neighbourhood Centre since the age of 12. She’s already writing and arranging her own songs, laying down the instrumentation, producing demos, directing music videos, and styling the photo shoots. Which can only lead to the conclusion there’s no doubt she was born to be a star. And no question she is destined to become a musical force of epic proportions.
A FEW FUN FACTS
Tuva wrote and laid down the instrumentation and vocals in the song Personal, which debuted on CBC Radio on May 10. Have a listen on Soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/tuva-bergstrom/persona/s-FPi4B
She just took home 1st Place and $1000 from the Starbound Youth Talent Competition at the 2018 Red River Ex, for nailing an acoustic cover of Creep by Radiohead. Here’s a previous YouTube video of Tuva’s haunting version of Creep: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EzNPYwm6sH8
She has a license to busk all summer long at Winnipeg’s most popular tourist destination, The Forks Market – and made well over a hundred bucks her first time out! This might be her new favourite job.
Released her first EP in January 2018 titled Ignore Me, I F***ing Dare You, and is currently working on music for her debut album (more details soon).
