Faye Blais is a Northern Ontario native, recently back in Canada, following three years overseas recording and touring her second album, with one and a half year stints in both Taiwan and Australia, where she filmed her live studio Album/DVD (May 2010 release). Her tours have taken her through Taiwan, Australia, New Zealand, USA and Canada.
