Jade LeMac Captures Fleeting Nostalgia and Intimacy in Her latest single "Pink Balloon"

The Vancouver-based singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist combines story with sound at just 20 years of age with surprising depth and creativity. A deceivingly simple Q&A gives way to the complexities of Jade's half-Asian upbringing, her proximity to the 2SLGBTQ+ community, and its importance as not only an artist but a person. The confluence of circumstances serves up the perfect storm in which Jade taps into simply being herself—the creative energy birthed from that identity transcends genre while displaying talent and vision beyond her years.
