Miss Lilly began her performance career at the very young age of 3. Her rendition of “Six Little Ducks” won her a singing contest at the CNE Bandshell Toronto, Canada. She studied piano, violin, guitar and vocals throughout her school years at The Royal Conservatory of Music. By her mid-teens, Lilian (Miss Lilly’s given name) and her younger sister Manon had recorded and released their first original works. As teenagers, the sisters Lilian and Manon toured with “The International Stars of Europe” in Canada, recorded in Warsaw Poland, and Nashville Tennessee. Lilian and Manon went on and became the lead singers of “Skyliner” who recorded on The Mercey Brothers Label and attained a top 30 single on the Canadian Country Charts in 1982. You can read the highlights, hear selected recordings and follow their careers by logging onto lilianmanon.com. It was at this time, the early 1980’s that children’s music and stories would start to make an impact on Lil’s life. Lilian, now a mother, branched out and became part of a C.B.S. recording children’s rock n’roll group (a two-time Juno nominee), and became an author of her 1st children’s book “Sky Blue” released on Golden Book Tapes. This is when and where she met “Markus”.

Doing what she loves, Miss Lilly has been performing for children across North America for over 20 years. Miss Lilly combines an educational fun filled musical program for toddlers to school age children full of action songs, finger plays and stories that enhances their motor skills and imaginations. Every engagement is a specially planned out performance. Be part of the musical magic.
