Talise Mulholland

Guests will be joined on stage by a brilliant local country-folk musician & songwriter for two numbers. Talise’s musical journey ignited at age five, crafting heartfelt tunes dedicated to her stuffed monkey. Growing up in Toronto, she performed at local events, busking on the city’s beaches, and won the Long & McQuade Song Studio Songwriting Award at twelve. At the age of seventeen, the musician embarked on travels, working on farms along the way, and discovered the enchanting world of Americana music. At 19, she embraced the banjo, adding a new dimension to her repertoire, showcasing her dedication by playing at unconventional venues. From solo performances to co-founding a successful female folk band called North Country Girls in 2023, Talise’s music reflects her diverse experiences, resonating authentically with audiences across North America. She is currently recording her first EP and playing live at every opportunity.
