多倫多音樂人 Eunice Keitan 的父母 Boon 和 Stephanie,不僅將對藝術的熱愛傳遞給女兒,也讓她成長於一個多語、多元文化的背景中。Stephanie 出生並成長於香港。Boon 在馬來西亞長大,但很早以前就跟隨父親移民加拿大。Stephanie 與 Boon 兩人都在蒙特婁的麥基爾大學(McGill University)主修食品科學。Stephanie 打趣地說,他們的婚姻其實要歸功於這段學術因緣,「因為我的實驗室搭檔就是 Boon 的哥哥。」

Boon and Stephanie’s families shared a deep appreciation for the arts, from music to ballroom dancing to magic.

We would like to acknowledge that we are gathered on the traditional and unceded territories of the Coast Salish peoples of the xʷməθkwəy̓əm (Musqueam Indian Band), Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish Nation), and Səl̓ílwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh Nation). With this acknowledgement, we thank the Indigenous peoples who still live on and care for this land.
