Victoria Staff

Born and raised in Toronto, Victoria Staff was always an “anxious child”. The string that connected much of her young life was using music to communicate with family, friends, teachers, and even therapists. Over time, this coping mechanism developed into a passion for music that would lead to her career as an indie-pop artist. Staff continues to use the written word to communicate with her audience the complex themes of love, loss, and her struggle with mental health. Her debut project “Records & Honesty” was released in 2023, under the guidance of Canadian music producer Dan Hosh. The EP is a vulnerable self-portrait of Staff’s life, including her history working through sexual assault. Her new music continues the through-line of melodic story-telling about life, love, and the pain that comes with it. On stage, on social media, and in person, Staff’s melancholy tones are offset by her comedic personality.
