Jeanne Truax isn’t playing it safe—she’s kicking down the doors of the Kawartha Lakes music scene with a sound that’s equal parts vintage swagger and sharp-edged indie fire. At just 22, the Dunsford-born rocker is already proving she’s not afraid to blur lines, crank the volume, and put her stamp on a tradition that stretches back to Wanda Jackson and The Beatles but feels fresh and dangerous in her hands.
Raised in a family where music wasn’t a hobby but a way of life, Jeanne cut her teeth young. Her voice has grit, charm, and just enough bite to keep you guessing, and her shows hit that sweet spot between raw energy and undeniable polish. It’s no surprise the Peterborough Folk Festival crowned her their 2025 Emerging Artist Award winner—she’s following in the footsteps of heavyweights like Serena Ryder and, fittingly, her own brother Nathan Truax.
Whether she’s belting out her originals or putting a new spin on a classic, Jeanne Truax owns the stage. She’s not just another name on the lineup—she’s the one you’ll be talking about after the amps cool down.
Catch her now, while you can still say “I saw her before she blew up.”
