I Heart Market Street, Old Town Toronto’s free urban park, welcomes Gisun to our street stage, located on Market Street, just north of The Esplanade. (Please note: Paula Sofia was scheduled to perform originally.)

Artist BIO: Gisun 지선 is a multicultural Canadian artist. Having studied vocal jazz performance at the New School and a Master of Arts at Berklee, her songwriting in both English and Spanish revolves around latin and soul-inspired music.

Since 2017, she has released three EP’s: Suspiras, Partes, and Fin in collaboration with musicians and sound engineers in New York, Valencia, Toronto, Vancouver, and Mexico. Her single release, Gracias a la Vida, has been featured on numerous CBC Music programs as well as on the Strombo Show. Gisun performed at the Pan American Games in Toronto, Carnaval del Sol, Vancouver Car Free Day Festival, Sofar Sounds (Toronto, Seattle, & Vancouver), and Vancouver Pride Festival.
