- MuzicNotez: First off, it’s an honor to be doing this interview with you, thanks for taking the time to sit down with us.
What motivated you to start creating music? What age did you begin?- Vanessa Lavoie: I started singing as a child and was on stage shortly after my 12th birthday. My motivation comes from the love of music. Having a lot on my mind, I was looking for a way to liberate myself. Writing music seemed like the perfect way for me to communicate with others.
- MuzicNotez: Who were your musical influences, idols, or bands growing up that have helped mold you into the musician you are today? Or helped mold the music that you create?
- Vanessa Lavoie: “Always believe in your dreams” is a sentence I keep saying, writing and communicating. My ultimate goal is to reach as many young signers as possible with my music. If they can identify themselves with my songs, then I will have succeeded.

- MuzicNotez: What’s the greatest concert you’ve ever been to or performed?
- Vanessa Lavoie: My greatest and biggest concert to date was to open for Simple Plan. I had the honor to sing in front of more than 100 000 screaming fans. This had to be the most nerve wreaking event I went through. I loved the feeling and am looking forward to repeating it.
- MuzicNotez: You won over 25 awards and counting so far in your young career, how does it feel to be acknowledged with all of these accolades?
- Vanessa Lavoie: I’m very happy to have been acknowledge and for the awards. I must admit that I truly sing for the passion of the music and not the awards. It is for this reason that I’m always surprised when I get nominated for or win an award.
