Nancy Reinhold

Nancy Reinhold is perhaps most well known as one of Canada's Wyrd Sisters, the thrice Juno (Canada’s Grammy) Award-nominated band she co-founded in 1991in Winnipeg, Manitoba. As the primary songwriter and lead vocalist/guitar player for The Wyrd Sisters, Nancy has performed numerous times at every major Folk Festival in Canada and twice at the Kerrville Folk Festival, one of the oldest and best–known in the US.

With the Wyrds, Reinhold has toured down the west coast of the United States and extensively throughout Canada, including appearances with the Edmonton Symphony Orchestra and Orchestra London in Ontario.

During Reinhold’s tenure, The Wyrd Sisters were best known for their incisive lyrics and stellar vocals along with their ability to make a strong personal connection with their audiences. As band leader, Nancy was instrumental in creating the atmosphere that encouraged that connection as well as writing many of the bands' most memorable and touching songs.

In 2003, Nancy's writing was recognized in Country Music Television's Songwriting Contest with an Honorable Mention for her song “Back Into Your Arms”. Her songs have appeared on compilation CDs including Prime CD's We Are Each Other's Angels, and the movie soundtrack for The Hanging Garden. www.nancyreinhold.com
