About

Inspired by everyday life and the vast intricacies of being human, Vikki Gilmore crafts meaningful narratives that ring tenderly relatable. Through her music, she seeks to create a connection between listeners and their personal journeys, allowing them to draw strength in self-expression.

Her 2023 debut album Mental Backroads follows an introspective journey of self-discovery along a metaphorical road trip through transformative life events and ever-evolving relationships with others and oneself.

The album mirrors Vikki’s own musical career to date, with a winding path and expansive songwriting discography in her rearview mirror. This road took her everywhere, from performances at Pop Montreal, Toronto’s historic Horseshoe Tavern for NXNE, and an upcoming set at Ottawa Bluesfest opening for Hozier; to Los Angeles for an EDM track with Rain Man under Steve Aoki’s label and a collaboration with Sonny Alven under Universal Music Group. These experiences helped her hone her craft and return to her roots, focusing on soulful songwriting and a folk-inspired sound. 

Vikki’s songwriting discography has accumulated over 7 million streams on Spotify. Her personal 2018 Someone – EP has accumulated over 300,000 streams and over 3 million views in acclaimed YouTube playlists. Her 2020 single Doubt of My Mind landed on the iTunes Top 100 Singer-Songwriter charts in Australia, France, and the UK.

Since 2018, Vikki has opened for notable acts such as Ziggy Alberts, Damian McGinty, Still Corners, Reina del Cid, and Port Cities. On top of her personal projects, she has been honing her songwriting craft as a featured artist on songs with EDM producers such as Rain Man + T-Mass, Summer Was Fun, and Jey Vazz.
