Having worked with icons like Ed Sheeran and Stevie Wonder, she first rose to prominence through posting covers on her YouTube channel, her debut studio album, Unbreakable Smile, included hits like Nobody Love and Should've Been Us. Her new album Tori' is out now, and begs to be heard live!

Rain - A Tribute To The Beatles - CIBC Theatre - MAY 17 - 18, 2024

Together longer than The Beatles themselves, RAIN has mastered every song, gesture and nuance of the legendary group, delivering a totally live, note-for-note performance that's as infectious as it is transporting.
