the duality between home and the big smoke in upcoming single ‘Always Go Home’

With a beautiful and catchy song portrayal of what
life is like growing up and pursuing one’s dreams, Canadian singer-songwriter
Aka V is embarking upon a bright future as a musician.

With a songwriting style that reminds of
brilliant female artists such as Sheryl
Crow or Shania Twain and a vocal
interpretation which hints on Gwen
Stefani, Aka V has all the right ingredients for a promising start in the
industry.

Her single ‘Always Go Home’ is an
autobiographical account of a young woman leaving her home and aiming for the
big city to realise her ambitions of becoming a musician.

The
song was inspired by her own story of leaving home and aiming to fulfil her
goals. She says: “This world can be very cruel and the entertainment industry is not for
everybody. I wanted to tell those people that there is no shame in going back
home, whatever your home is, wherever it is. Go back to that safe place, there
is no need to become somebody you wouldn’t be proud of because you’re too
scared to face the fact that this one dream didn’t work out.”

Her optimistic approach to life has made
her keep a clear head in the pursuit of her own career. Aka V is an artist who
knows exactly what she wants and turns her ideas into reality.

Also known under the name Vanessa Huneault,
Aka V has always been proactive in making things happen. After growing up in a
small town in Quebec where no one speaks English, the decided to hit the road
at the age of 20 and packed up her bag to move to Ontario. She learned how to
speak English and started a completely new life for herself. Aka V eventually
moved to Toronto where she began to focus mostly on her musical career. She
took singing lessons and started to play shows.

Determined to make it in the music
industry, the singer decided to get an education in Audio Production and
Engineering to understand how to record and master her own tracks. During that
time, she also joined the Canadian rock band OzGoode and went on a national
tour with them as their singer.
