Liona has given solo and orchestral concerts around the globe and played for dozens of world leaders including the British Royal Family and the U.S. President.  She has recorded with Sir Andrew Davis, and the English Chamber Orchestra, Yo Yo Ma and Georges Zamfir, and breaking with classical tradition, has toured with Gordon Lightfoot and Tracey Chapman, as well as recorded with Chet Atkins, Eric Clapton, David Gilmore, and Roger Whittaker.  Liona has been a special guest on dozens of American television shows including The Tonight Show, Today Show, Boston Pops, and Entertainemnt Tonight.  Her virtuoso talents resulted in five Juno awards, five honorary degrees, and The Order of Canada.  She is also a five-time winner of the Guitar Player Magazine poll for best classical guitarist and has been inducted into their "Gallery of Greats".  Liona has composed ad arranged hundreds of pieces for her instrument and also penned a best selling autobiography.

After a six year hiatus from touring, due to Musician's Focal Dystonia, Liona returned triumphantly to the stage in 2010 having added singing to her guitar playing, and released two milestone CD's "Liona Boyd sings Songs of Love", and "Seven Journeys - Music for the Soul and Imagination" with Peter Bond.  In 2011 she relocated to live in Toronto and now tours with Michael Savona with whom in 2012 she will release a new CD called "The Return...To Canada with Love".

In her words: "Music contributes profoundly to the richness and beauty of our lives.  I feel so fortunate to be able to share this wonderful international language with people around the world."
