Domanique Grant
Meet Domanique Grant
Named one of BUZZFEEDS top 20 artists’ to watch, Domanique Grant is amongst a new generation of artists. A new generation whose music is going viral globally for its ability to spread light and inspire authenticity.
Still, the young artist never imagined that a simple act of kindness during the first global pandemic, would be what led to her first viral single, and what CTV National has called “The anthem of our time”.
People around the world will forever remember waking up on a rainy day in March and turning on their TV’s to the image and sound of a teal haired artist’s voice filling the empty streets of Toronto, as hundreds isolated in their homes during the first global lockdown. Domanique Grant is the perfect combination of whimsical fierceness.
Her message of self love has lead to music being featured by L’Oreal Paris, Unilever Brands (Dove, Shea Moisture) in the RBC #RandomActsofCanadianSeries and more. Last year Domanique's viral single Till We See The Sun was featured on top 40 radio stations ranging from Virgin Radio to CBC. Her live performance has sold out a TEDx Talk and been featured on the Pepsi World Aids Day stage for over 40,000 people in Uganda.
Domanique has appeared in the Pan American Games opening ceremonies for over 1 million people. She is also amongst a small group of global artists that has been invited to perform for the Prime Minister of Canada and The United Nations.
