<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">The Bird and the Lion.
</span></b><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">The Bird and the Lion express high levels of musicality with their unique renditions of cover songs. Elaina Buenaventura (aka the Bird) has been a musician for 5 years starting on guitar. Now she has
expanded her horizons and plays a variety of instruments centred on her intriguing voice. Amanda Costa (aka the Lion) began her musical expedition 9 years ago with the piano. Currently playing too many instruments to count, she's always on the hunt for a new
challenge. These two met each other in Terry Fox Secondary’s Rock School program in their early years of high school. As a young band, they continue to take inspiration from anywhere they go and everything they do, hoping to bring people together, one note
at a time.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

</span></b><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">Samantha Stouten is a 19 year old solo singer songwriter from Port Coquitlam. Concert choir, contemporary music class, and some piano lessons have all been vital in her ever growing passion for songwriting
and performing. She writes honest narratives as well as abstract lyrics that are accompanied by simple, yet dynamic piano arrangements. Her sound varies from soft and light melodies to darker and more passionate tunes; this is all to express a wide range of
thoughts and feelings. She is planning to release her first EP entitled "i don't know" in 2016.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
