Artist History
Victoria has been entertaining since the age of 6. She cut her first record at age 8 and has aspired to an international recording career ever since. She received a standing ovation from 17,500 fans at a Shania Twain concert and is the winner of 2 scholarships to Boston's Berklee College of Music, along with firsts in both the Open Country and CNE Country Singing Championships in 2000. In 2001, she financed, wrote, produced & released her debut country cd, ALL WOMAN GIRL to rave reviews and subsequently toured England twice. In 2002, she entertained 16,000 at Queen Elizabeth's Golden Jubilee and more recently, joined a star-studded lineup, including the newly-crowned Canadian Idol, Ryan Malcolm, and Canadian artists, Sass Jordan, Jeff Healey and Tom Cochran at the Opening Ceremonies for the World Cycling Championships attended by 8000 people. But what lies ahead, since being signed to THE RUST BROTHERS in 2003 is bound to be the most exciting development in the career of this "future Canadian superstar". |

Press Reviews
""That ALL WOMAN GIRL, Victoria Boland, is wowing her audiences and BBC RADIO and even HOT 'N GOLD on her mini-tour of the UK. Since the day she arrived on British soil, both the BBC and Hot 'n Gold have lauded her independently released cd, ALL WOMAN GIRL, and praised its uniqueness in having 12 great tracks and not just one or two!
Victoria received well-deserved encores at every gig." Clive, dj at Hot 'n Gold country radio station, UK.
"Her rendition of Faith Hill's "Breathe" brought the house down....the first artist today recalled for a well deserved encore"
Reviewer for Southern Country magazine UK reporting on Victoria's performance at International Music Festival, UK tour, 2002.
"Here is a distinctive vocalist with a sultry edge and a talented songwriter who is destined for a highly successful international career."
