About Victoria Banks

Victoria Banks has been nominated for 11 Canadian Country Music Association (CCMA) Awards and was named CCMA Female Artist of the Year and Songwriter of the Year in 2010. She has been labeled “one of the best songwriters in the business” by Nashville’s MusicRow magazine. In addition to appearing on NBC’s Songland TV show, releasing four albums (including her latest Uncovered record on which she wrote, produced, arranged, engineered, and played every instrument on every track) and touring with artists from Reba to Wynonna, Banks - who hails from Muskoka, Canada - has penned ASCAP, SOCAN, CCMA and Covenant-award-winning hits including Sara Evans’ solo-written “Saints & Angels”, Jessica Simpson’s Billboard record-breaking “Come On Over”, and one of the top Canadian singles of the decade: Johnny Reid’s “Dance With Me”. Banks penned one of the most impactful singles of 2020: Mickey Guyton’s “What are You Gonna Tell Her” (one of three songs Victoria penned on Mickey's Bridges EP), which Guyton performed on the 2020 ACM Awards, followed by Banks' song "Hold On" on the 2021 ACM Awards. Banks has had cuts by over 100 artists including Carly Pearce, Lauren Alaina, Terri Clark, Cassadee Pope, The Shires, Isaac Slade (of The Fray), and has had songs featured in TV and movies like Breakthrough, Nashville, American Idol, and Dancing With the Stars. Victoria performed alongside the Nashville Ballet as part of their Attitude program - for which several of her songs were choreographed including the program’s title, City of Dreams - and she became a podcast host with the launch of The Table Women, featuring interviews with notable women in entertainment.
