On the surface it may sound like a familiar tale of a small town girl whoβs making it big. But one listen to Maggieβs ageless and rich voice shows you that she is is anything but typical.
Her destiny was seemingly set on an artistic path very early on in life, her parents regularly entertained for friends and family in Ontario when she would put on singing and dancing shows for her friends and family at their dinner parties. With strong encouragement from her family, Maggie eventually channeled her passion for performance into dance and voice lessons which she excelled in immediately. Before she had turned 12, she was performing in recitals on a regular basis, and turning heads by singing at local events around her hometown of Dundas, Ontario.
Propelled by her love of performance in her early teens Maggie joined her high school band and choral groups to further develop her already considerable talents for singing and playing the piano, guitar and saxophone.
Before she knew it, her unique and powerful voice began taking centre stage, and garnering major attention from teachers and fellow students who urged her to test the waters by performing the Canadian national anthem at local sporting events, and the response was uniformed amazement that such a mature and soulful could be coming from such a young girl.
Maggie began performing regularly at sporting events for the Mississauga Ice Dogs, Hamilton Tiger-Cats, and Toronto Blue Jays games and while the thrill of being in front of thousands of people helped her grow as a performer, the true call within her was to pursue writing and recording her own songs.
At 13 Maggie picked up a pen and paper for the first time, sat down at her piano and wrote her very first original song. It was then she knew what the years of her experience had been cresting towards - writing music that she would feel a distinct and personal connection to sharing with others.
As high school began winding down, and most students begin to feel pressures about what schools to apply to, and what to βbe when they grow upβ, Maggie was already sure-footedly channeling her youthful vivacity and drive into making her passion for music become her future.
Making her dreams come true would take major risks. With armfuls of confidence push forward in her pursuits without a safety net, after graduation Maggie packed up the contents of her life into her car and headed to Nashville, Tennessee to help develop her songwriting acumen in the music mecca.
Fast forward two years later, after striking it out on her own working with musicians and songwriters and, performing endlessly in legendary venues around the city, Maggie returned to Canada ready to share her music with the world. It was at this point where Maggieβs career reached its pivotal turning point. With a command of her songwriting, and renewed sense that her path was set Maggie, at a club performance in Hamilton came to the attention of Canadian record label Linus Entertainment and was immediately signed to take her dynamic talent further by recording her debut record.
Now, the stage is set for All About Maggieβs debut. Under her own direction, her sound has playfully extended past the boundaries of pop and neo-soul, to create a blend transcendent of being pigeonholed as a flavour-of-the-week. Her larger than life voice is vivacious, honest and timeless - a force that has been influenced by the greats, and yet clearly is no imitation.
The evolution of All About Maggie continues to see this young performer push genre boundaries and assert herself as a strong, independent artist. Now All About Maggie is poised to emerge as the powerful sound leading the return to the days of soulful pop music, and commanding songwriting.

All About Maggie Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I can't help but notice, you reflect in this heart of mine
If you ever feel alone and the glare makes me hard to find
Just know that I'm always parallel on the other side
'Cause with your hand in my hand and a pocket full of soul
I can tell you there's no place we couldn't go
Just put your hand on the glass, I'm here trying to pull you through
You just gotta be strong
I'm looking right at the other half of me
The vacancy that sat in my heart
Is a space that now you hold
Show me how to fight for now
And I'll tell you, baby, it was easy
Coming back into you once I figured it out
You were right here all along
It's like you're my mirror
My mirror staring back at me
I couldn't get any bigger
With anyone else beside of me
And now it's clear as this promise
That we're making two reflections into one
'Cause it's like you're my mirror
My mirror staring back at me, staring back at me
Aren't you something, an original, 'cause it doesn't seem merely assembled
And I can't help but stare 'cause I see truth somewhere in your eyes
Ooh I can't ever change without you, you reflect me, I love that about you
And if I could, I would look at us all the time
'Cause with your hand in my hand and a pocket full of soul
I can tell you there's no place we couldn't go
Just put your hand on the past, I'm here trying to pull you through
You just gotta be strong
'Cause I don't wanna lose you now
I'm looking right at the other half of me
The vacancy that sat in my heart
Is a space that now you hold
Show me how to fight for now
And I'll tell you, baby, it was easy
Coming back into you once I figured it out
You were right here all along
It's like you're my mirror
My mirror staring back at me
I couldn't get any bigger
With anyone else beside of me
And now it's clear as this promise
That we're making two reflections into one
'Cause it's like you're my mirror
My mirror staring back at me, staring back at me
Yesterday is history
Tomorrow's a mystery
I can see you looking back at me
Keep your eyes on me
Baby, keep your eyes on me
'Cause I don't wanna lose you now
I'm looking right at the other half of me
The vacancy that sat in my heart
Is a space that now you hold
Show me how to fight for now
And I'll tell you, baby, it was easy
Coming back into you once I figured it out
You were right here all along
It's like you're my mirror
My mirror staring back at me
I couldn't get any bigger
With anyone else beside of me
And now it's clear as this promise
That we're making two reflections into one
'Cause it's like you're my mirror
My mirror staring back at me, staring back at me
You are you are the love of my life
You are you are the love of my life
You are you are the love of my life
You are you are the love of my life
You are you are the love of my life
You are you are the love of my life
You are you are the love of my life
You are you are the love of my life
You are you are the love of my life
You are you are the love of my life
Now you're the inspiration for this precious song
And I just wanna see your face light up since you put me on
So now I say goodbye to the old me, it's already gone
And I can't wait wait wait wait wait to get you home
Just to let you know, you are
You are you are the love of my life
You are you are the love of my life
You are you are the love of my life
You are you are the love of my life
You are you are the love of my life
You are you are the love of my life
You are you are the love of my life
You are you are the love of my life
Girl you're my reflection, all I see is you
My reflection, in everything I do
You're my reflection and all I see is you
My reflection, in everything I do
You are you are the love of my life
You are you are the love of my life
You are you are the love of my life
You are you are the love of my life
You are you are the love of my life
You are you are the love of my life
You are you are the love of my life
You are you are the love of my life
You are you are the love of my life
You are you are the love of my life
You are you are the love of my life
You are you are the love of my life
You are you are the love of my life
You are you are the love of my life
You are you are the love of my life
