CHRISTA MERCEY
With a bachelor's degree in percussion, Christa's passion for pitch, rhythm and rudiments has led her to all corners of the world, first through studying music in West Africa, to her current full-time gig, Scrap Arts Music, a touring percussion show (scrapartsmusic.com).
Growing up in a family of musicians, including seven-time Juno Award winners The Mercey Brothers, Christa watched her family connect and express themselves through sing-a-longs and play-a-longs. Through her Floorboards EP, she brings herself home by layering her technical percussion skills with moody vocals, a swinging slide guitar and the simplicity of a ukulele.
