Kreviazuk made her critically acclaimed full-length debut, “Under These Rocks and Stones” in 1997. Since then, the Winnipeg born and internationally celebrated 3x JUNO Award and Grammy-winning singer-songwriter and musician, classically trained pianist, actress, movie producer, philanthropist, and humanitarian, has recorded ten albums, including a live album, a holiday album and a collaboration with her husband and Our Lady Peace frontman Raine Maida under the moniker Moon vs Sun. A prolific songwriter, Kreviazuk has individually penned, co-written and collaborated on a vast catalog of hits with artists such as Kelly Clarkson, Drake, Carrie Underwood, Kendrick Lamar, Gwen Stefani, Pitbull, Christina Aguilera and many more. Equally committed to helping those in need, Kreviazuk was awarded the Order of Canada in 2014 along with Maida, for their efforts to raise awareness and support for human and animal rights, mental health, education, and the environment.
