Broken-heart ballads, barroom blues, old-school gospel style inspirationals, raunchy rock...Treasa plays whatever shakes her soul. Her lyrics are smart, poetic, and socially conscious. Treasa Levasseur has a whole lot to say, and she says it with sincerity and sass, with a powerhouse voice that cannot be ignored or denied. Influenced by the whole sisterhood of soulful sirens, from Joni Mitchell to Etta James, Carole King to Dusty Springfield and all the way back to Bessie Smith, Treasa's roots spread far and dig deep. She plays piano, accordion, guitar, mandolin, and anything else she can get her hands on. This multitalented singer/songwriter is also a trained actress, a teacher, an event producer, a playwright, and has run a successful children's entertainment buisiness for the last 6 years in Toronto.
