This show is a celebration of an incredibly talented and raw artist in the truest form,
As a songwriter, vocalist, performer, and deep, emotional, passionate and driven young woman. The depth of Amy’s honest, controversial, brilliant and beautiful artistry is beyond what many can understand. Many of Amy’s jazz and hip-hop inspired poetic songs of very raw personal reflection will be featured.
In producing and performing this show, with a stellar A-list of musical colleagues well known across Canada, my hope is to help create an awareness of the impact and relationship between addictions in all forms, domestic abuse, depression, and mental health. The psychological and physical pressures of pursuing a career in music are rarely discussed or understood, yet judged very harshly in the media, and generally so in the public eye.
PROMO VIDEO
Worthy of any stage in Vegas, this show is an incredible musical celebration of the gifts of song and music that Amy Winehouse left this world. This video bite was recorded live at the Broadway Theatre in Saskatoon, Canada to a sold out crowd.

“Heidi Munro is outstanding in her self produced tribute to Amy Winehouse. She assembled an amazing group of musicians & backup singers to accompany her. No detail was overlooked that Amy Winehouse had during her performances. Even the tattoos on Heidi’s shoulder matched Amy’s.”

“The Passion of Amy Winehouse was incredible.
It is fitting because the first thing I noticed when I first saw your perform was your enthusiasm and passion combined with your talent.
I have been a groupie ever since. The musicians are all so incredible. Having fun together. And you are so gracious.
