Bio
Darrian Gerard, a Canadian Pop-Rock virtuoso, crafts her own musical universe from the depths of her home studio in a small town in British Columbia, Canada. From learning guitar at 7 years old to seamlessly embracing bass, piano, drums, and vocals, Gerard’s multi-instrumental prowess defines her artistry as she writes, records, and produces all of her own music.
Initiating her professional journey in 2021, Gerard has since unveiled a multitude of singles and an EP garnering attention through blog features, radio plays, and international press. Her anthemic pop-rock sound draws inspiration from luminaries like Avril Lavigne, blink-182, Halsey, and Taylor Swift.
The much anticipated EP, “Basement Stadium”, dropped February 10th, 2023 supported by Creative BC’s Career Development grant as she was among 17.8% of recipients. “Basement Stadium” made waves on US/Canadian college radio, consistent airplay on commercial radio in Canada, internet radio, surpassed over 200k streams on Spotify and notably, her single “Old Wounds” ascended to #34 on the UK Alternative iTunes Chart, marking a stellar milestone in her musical journey.
