Live @ The London - Hendrika

Hendrika is a force to be reckoned with . From her bluegrass roots to teenaged rock rebellion, to jazz focused college years, her love for many genres has led to a versatile and unique collection of original material that pushes the boundaries of modern music in all the right ways.
Selina Heyligers-Hare (band leader) is a multi-instrumentalist, songwriter and graduate from Selkirk College's Music & Technology program. Along with Hendrika, she is a member of bands such as Major Funk (two time WCMA nominees) , Paris Pick (FocusWales 2021, Keychange ), the Naysayers (Coax Records) and was a transcriber, songwriter and co-writer for Larrikin Entertainment's newest musical WYRD.
For Hendrika, the stage is home, she emanates a star quality while still being humble and kind in character. From indie folk themes to bright soaring vocals, her music could be described as folk roots with a classic rock attitude. She is working on a new studio album to be released in summer 2024 with a subsequent Western Canadian tour on the docket including Yukons own Dawson City Music Festival.
