Music – Toronto
Hi! My name is Brooke Lanziner and I’m a singer/songwriter living in Toronto, Ontario. I’ve just released my second single and first music video, with many more songs and videos ahead!
I grew up in North Vancouver, British Columbia, very involved in the performing arts. From competitive dance training, to jazz choir, to drama class, to show choir rehearsals… I spent all of my time training and performing. Which led to me moving to Oakville, Ontario, right after graduating high school, to attend Sheridan College’s Music Theatre Performance Program. After graduating from Sheridan, I moved to downtown Toronto and spent a few years going to auditions and pursuing musicals and an acting career.
When I turned 24, I had a somewhat quarter life crisis where I realized I really wasn’t happy; I didn’t feel like I was getting anywhere, nor was I enjoying the work. So I blew up my life a little. I realized I didn’t just want to be a singer, I wanted to be an artist, but the problem was I had never really written music. So one year ago (June 2017), I told a friend that if I didn’t write 5 songs in the month of June, I would give her $500. I kept my money, and I haven’t been able to stop writing since.
My priority with my music is to be raw, and to be my real self at all times. I’m not doing this for fame, or for money; this is just what I have to do. Nothing and no one in the world can give me the feeling I’ve only just discovered recently from making my own music and sharing it with the world.
Creep On Back was my debut single, and now I release my second single, Relapse, with a music video! Both tracks were produced/mixed/mastered by Guillermo Subauste, and he also played all of the instruments (drums, acoustic guitar, electric guitar, bass). This is just the beginning; I hope you enjoy taking the journey with me!
