Dorothea Paas
Dorothea Paas is a Canadian singer-songwriter from Toronto, Ontario, whose debut album Anything Can't Happen was a longlisted nominee for the 2021 Polaris Music Prize. Paas has released a number of EPs since 2012. Although she has often resisted active self-promotion, she successfully built up a career as a backing vocalist for musicians such as Jennifer Castle and U.S. Girls. Anything Can't Happen, which features Paul Saulnier of PS I Love You on bass guitar, has been described by critics as "Joni Mitchell fronting Shellac at a coffee shop". In addition to her solo career, she also performs as a sometime guest vocalist with Badge Époque Ensemble. She has also had occasional roles as a film actress, most notably in Kazik Radwanski's films How Heavy This Hammer and Anne at 13,000 Ft.
