Kael Sauerborn

Kael Sauerborn is a self-taught instrumentalist and singer-songwriter originally from Gimli, Manitoba. Growing up on Willow Creek in the quiet country, to living in Winnipeg and Edmonton, he’s been a part of many circles. While music was his first passion, he was also an athlete- and after a life-changing injury music became even more of a saving grace.  With influence from honest songwriters such as Hozier, City and Colour, Dermot Kennedy, and Foy Vance, he’s been unafraid to comment on life through his own lens. Combining original, dynamic guitar playing and silver-toned vocals, Kael brings a special sound. His lyrical themes of hope, optimism, and self-surrender paired with his open book nature gives listeners permission to feel seen and heard in their own struggles.

With features on CBC Radio, performances with the Winnipeg Symphony Orchestra, and Winnipeg Folk Festival, Kael is steadily carving out a space for himself as a songwriter. While currently his songs can only be heard live, his first EP project is set to release for mid-late 2023.
