Isaac BaronikianWith songs and sold-out performances that have earned him community radio play across Canada and comparisons to Jack Johnson, John Mayer, and Bahamas, Isaac is carving out his own slice of space as a mellow-sounding songwriter with relevant things to say.
Coming of age in Toronto's west end with a family CD collection of Talking Heads, Steely Dan, The Beatles, and whatever early-2000s emo indie band was on the radio, Isaac spent his adolescence geeking out over music and media. Now living in Ottawa, ON, and writing to the sounds of post-Toronto-indie-folk-recession-rock, Isaac sings about the way things are and where they might be headed. With his sharp observations and soft baritone voice, Isaac’s songs come across like conversations with an old friend.
Isaac’s debut singer-songwriter record, For The Road, was self-produced with support from the City of Ottawa’s Creation and Production Fund for Professional Artists and a successful GoFundMe fundraising campaign.
