This year’s Bee is pairing up with Capital City Records to celebrate words in speech and in song. Between nail-biting rounds, the event will feature live musical performances by Olivia Street.

Olivia is an award-nominated songwriter, performer, and educator whose music has topped the CKUA charts and taken her to stages across Canada and beyond. She also teaches at MacEwan University and runs Crystal Baby Music, supporting local artists

and the broader music community. With four acclaimed albums and experience as a juror for the JUNOs, FACTOR, and the Edmonton Arts Council, Olivia brings deep insight into both the creative and business sides of music that she currently shares in her role as EPL’s Musician in Residence.
