February 24th, 2023 will mark the release of Desiree's sixth studio album. “That’s How I Know,” was produced Chris Burke-Gaffney (with the exception of one track). The album will include the very personal "I Can't Love You to Death," which was inspired by her real-life experience of setting boundaries between herself and a loved one struggling with addiction. "I wasn't going to release this song. Until I heard Charles Kelley's personal song about being an addict. For me, music is most touching when its honest. His honesty compelled me to share this story" she says.

Desiree is heading out on tour, starting in Winnipeg and going as far west as Invermere, BC. She will finish the tour in her hometown of Dauphin, Manitoba on September 14th, 2022 before heading out to Nashville to perform at Americanafest. Follow along on her social media for all the details!!

The official music video for Wouldn't That be Fun? surpasses 13,000 views!

"Wouldn't That be Fun?" is a fun, uplifting duet featuring Dave Wasyliw (who is one half of the multi JUNO & CCMA award winning duo Doc Walker).

Desiree will be releasing her first Christmas single, "Hillbilly Christmas" on November 12th, 2021. The tune pays homage to the craziness that finds its way into families at Christmas time. 

Desiree Dorion took home two awards at the Manitoba Country Music Awards: one for Best Female Artist of the Year and another for Indigenous Artist of the Year!

"Sometimes I Drink," was co-written by Desiree Dorion & Crystal Shawanda and produced by Chris Burke-Gaffney. It is an anthem for women who unapologetically take time for themselves to let loose and have some fun.

Have you ever eaten one chip, thinking that'll be the only one, but you keep eating?

Have you ever said, "I'll only have one glass," but you keep drinking?

Have you ever told a white lie that turned into a bigger lie?

These are some of the questions that inspired this song that Desiree co-wrote with Chris Burke-Gaffney. It is available now whereever you get your music!

Desiree Dorion's fifth studio album is out now and available online on all streaming services. Break the Chain is also available for download on iTunes. If you'd prefer a physical copy of the CD, email bookings@desireedorion.com to order your copy today.

"Beautiful People," is hitting Canadian country airwaves on January 24th, 2020 and Desiree will be in New Orleans attending Folk Alliance International when the track drops. 

Pretty Poor Pretty Proud is a song about growing up with less of the finer things in life but holding onto a willingness to work hard along with a sense of pride. This song was co-written by Desiree Dorion and Chris Burke-Gaffney.

The mixes are starting to roll in. Chris Burke-Gaffney is producing Desiree's 5th studio album! "Break the Chain" is a marked departure from anything Desiree has ever done before. A hint of pop yes staying true to Desiree's country roots.  We can't wait to share her new music with you!

17 is available on Spotify, iTunes and Apple Music!
