Tune in this Thursday- July 23, as Ariexile serenades us on the #RunitBlack stage. Tune in live at 6PM on Facebook at @artscapeto , @manifesto_to or @urbanartsto pages! Don’t miss it!!

About Ariexile
Lofi/alternative artist, Ariexile continues to be one of the most unique and diverse musicians in the GTA. Ariexile grew up listening to gospel music and participated in her church’s worship team. She developed the skill of perfect pitch, along with her curiosity for other instruments including guitar, which she began to play and master at age 15. Through this, Ariexile discovered the rambunctiousness of early 2000s pop punk, rock and grunge which made her first image as a punk artist. With nothing but strong will and a great amount of self-confidence, Ari has established herself as an extremely versatile artist with the capability of doing anything she desires.
