Vancouver Island singer-songwriter Sylvia Humble has returned to the stage with a passion after shelving her dream for 20 years to focus on career and family. Sparked by a health crisis, she left her government cubicle, picked up her ukulele, and discovered that her purpose in life is to help others liberate their voice and sing in harmony, imperfectly! Sylvia now delights audiences with her pure, heartfelt vocals and ukulele strumming, and is known for getting audiences singing. Her inspirations range from Joni Mitchell to Coco Love Alcorn, and her original songs are uplifting and personal.

In 2021, Sylvia founded a fun and informal community choir called Sing Again, where she teaches harmony singing by ear, that has grown to serve Nanaimo, Nanoose Bay, and Parksville.  She also leads community singing events, flash mobs, and vocal workshops and concerts with other songwriters.
