Awna Teixeira from Po' Girl is performing live.

Portuguese Canadian, Awna Teixeira has been touring steady in different bands since 2001. While handling the many instruments with ease, Awna’s songs convey that classic old time feel of back porch spirituals. Crossing borders with her Portuguese upbringing, you can also hear her tales of heartache and travel through accordion driven European folk.

Performing on banjo, accordion, guitar and baritone ukulele, she has received international rave reviews for her debut solo release "Were The Darkness Goes".

"A bag of riches from Po' Girl front-woman! "Teixeira’s voice is a delightfully gentle instrument; like the elfin sister of Emmylou Harris and Stevie Nicks." 4/5 Americana UK
