August 22 – Katherine Nemec & Jordan Humeniuk
Katherine Nemec
A Northern Ontario vocalist and singer-songwriter whose sound moves between pop, folk, and rock. Known for her striking voice and emotionally honest writing, she blends raw feeling with polished artistry.
In 2024, she made her orchestral solo debut in the TBSO Northern Lights series, alongside releasing her debut EP Glow. She continued that momentum in 2025 with a headlining concert at Magnus Theatre’s outdoor stage and a featured performance at Live On The Waterfront amongst many other gigs in and around Thunder Bay.
For Katherine, music is an act of vulnerability—an outlet for the things she’d never say out loud. With her candid voice and unmistakable perspective, she’s carving out a compelling space in the Northern Ontario music scene.
Jordan Humeniuk
Jordan Humeniuk is a Thunder Bay-based singer-songwriter, delivering a dynamic mix of original music and timeless covers. With influences like Fleetwood Mac and Taylor Swift, she blends rock with touches of folk and pop to create a sound that feels both familiar and fresh. Jordan’s debut single, “The Other Side,” is now available on all streaming platforms, with more music on the way.
