Bio
Loud, vulnerable, and emotionally explosive, Miss the Heart blurs the line between intimate confession and full-volume chaos.
Fronted by vocalist Kiarra O’Connor and driven by the heartbeat-like drumming of Michael Voytash, the Victoria, BC alternative pop-rock duo crafts emotionally charged anthems that live somewhere between heartbreak and catharsis, fueled by unapologetic feminine rage.
Emerging from a period of personal loss and creative regrowth following their time in Shale, Miss the Heart represents a reinvention grounded in emotional honesty and transformation. Drawing inspiration from artists like Måneskin, Olivia Rodrigo, and July Talk, and working alongside acclaimed producer Ryan Worsley, the duo has refined a sound that balances raw alternative edge with polished pop sensibility.
On stage, Miss the Heart transforms into an intense, dynamic live force, balancing vulnerable, intimate moments with explosive delivery and a distinctly feminine rock aesthetic. Their performances create space for audiences to connect, release, and feel understood.
With momentum rising after a strong debut run of releases and upcoming commercial radio support from The Zone @ 91-3, Miss the Heart is emerging as one of the most exciting new names in Canadian music, poised for a breakout moment.
