Kellie Loder

Kellie Loder (born 1988) is an independent singer-songwriter from Newfoundland who plays drums, guitar and piano. Having written her first song at age 16 about a cousin who died in a traffic accident, Loder was studying nursing at the Grenfell Campus of Memorial University of Newfoundland when she released her first album, The Way, in August 2009. Later that year, she won a talent-search contest hosted by YC Newfoundland, a Christian youth conference. As part of the award, Loder was given time with music industry and production professionals who helped her with Imperfections & Directions, her second album, which was released at the 2010 YC Newfoundland. Loder's nursing studies hampered her ability to showcase Imperfections & Directions by touring. Loder was nominated as Female Artist of the Year at the 2010 MusicNL awards, and then as Gospel Artist of the Year in 2011. Imperfections & Directions was nominated as Contemporary Christian/Gospel Album of the Year at the 2012 Juno Awards. Loder has asserted that she chose to begin her career in Contemporary Christian music because it gives purpose to her music. (Full article...)

October 10, 2013 is the third anniversary of the release of Loder's Juno-nominated album, Imperfections & Directions. I believe this blurb therefore has 1 TFA point. Neelix (talk) 18:23, 22 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
