About Heidi Ellis

Heidi is the current Maritime Idol (2008). She competed against hundreds of young singers in the Maritime Provinces and after a year long competition she was crowned Maritime Idol 2008!

Heidi Ellis, was born In Summerside P.E.I. on Oct. 26 1991. She is a student at Westisle High and lives in East Bideford , Prince Edward Island in Canada with her family.

Heidi first discovered her love for performing when she entered the local Music Festival at the age of six, placing first in her category. From there Heidi became the youngest member of NOSCO ( theater school) at the age of seven. Performing two musicals twice a year for seven years.
Contests became her new challenge by the age of eleven. Entering and winning such competitions as The Rising Star, Alberton P.E.I. Youth Talent Search Summerside, P.E.I. West Prince Idol Day's Corner P.E.I. Prince County Has Talent, Summerside, P.E.I. and of course Maritime Idol in July of 2008.
Participating in Maritime Idol has given Heidi confidence and the opportunity to meet new people both on a social level and of a professional nature. The experience of recording her own c.d. was remarkable. The exposure to well trained and talented people in the field was an asset in its own right. One not to be forgotten.
When choosing songs for recording Heidi carefully picked what she hoped people would enjoy listening to. Gathering a mixture of her best contest songs and also those that she enjoyed performing.
Heidi plans to continue with her singing at every opportunity while finishing her academic education. Performing will always be her first love and she hopes to someday to be in theater again as well, and maybe travel to Nashville to gain experience there.
