PLANTING SEEDS OF HOPE AS AN AMBASSADOR OF THE PEOPLE.
INSPIRING GROWTH THROUGH MUSIC, WORKSHOPS AND STORYTELLING.
“I believe in the truth. I choose to honour my truth-through my music, storytelling, facilitating and production.
It’s important to say something, give something and leave something. Legacy is built on what we leave in others after we go.
I will share my story. My prayer is that seeds of hope plant in those who hear my truth, which can be universal.
I pray we connect on some level, even if only for a moment to walk the journey together.”
Beatrice Love is Plains Cree from Treaty 8.
As a reborn Christian, Beatrice identifies and believes in the Power of Hope, Deliverance and Redemption. Her Faith carries and sustains her through her journey of growing up Indigenous.

PERFORMER
B Love is a Soul/R&B singer/songwriter.
“If James Brown and Janis Joplin had a child, it would be Beatrice love. Her voice is the perfect combination of whiskey and cigarettes, a cross-pollination of velvety Smooth juxtaposed by sorrowful raspiness which is addictive upon first listen.” — Adrian Rezza
Beatrice has had the privilege to perform in various locations from Vancouver, BC to North Dakota and all across Turtle Island. Music motivates Beatrice and soothes the wounds inherited by being Indigenous.

I believe in the limitless power of music.
The power to heal, transform and inspire lies in the choice of lyrics, measures of beats and how a song makes us feel.
Music saved and changed my life.
SPEAKER
Beatrice knows the force of powerlessness.
It was in her brokenness of addiction, she learned the weaponry of shining light on her darkest parts. Standing in her authenticity works hand in hand in walking the red road (clean and sober since May 12, 2017).
Her purpose focuses on Honesty, Recovery and Acceptance. Beatrice uses these life experiences to Empower, Motivate and Encourage others.
"It is not our start in life that matters,
it's how we finish"
