STEPHANIE CONN is a singer of traditional music, specializing in Gaelic song from Nova Scotia. As solo singer with the crossover ensemble Puirt a Baroque, she earned a Juno Award nomination for the CD “Return of the Wanderer” and performed over 100 concerts across Canada, and sung on live broadcasts for NPR in the US and CTV in Canada.

She is also a piano accompanist for Cape Breton and Irish-style traditional music, and plays the Anglo concertina.

As a choral singer she has performed with Aradia Ensemble, La Chapelle de Quebec and Tafelmusik in major halls across North America. She played Anna I (voice, on stage) and Anna II (on screen) in The Friends of Gravity’s production of The Seven Deadly Sins by Kurt Weill. Her singing was described as “genuine, intelligent, and nuanced” and her acting “mesmerizing”(Schmopera ). Film credits include lead roles in BravoFact videos, and chorus in Rhombus media’s film of Mark Morris’ Dido and Aeneas.
