Electronic artist CLARA VENICE returns to Toronto, after completing her Residency at the National Music Centre in Calgary, Alberta, to perform at The Ballet club tonight, October 24, 2014. Clara will perform songs from her EP Love Riddle, released as a line of wearable USB jewelry, as well as new songs she wrote during her residency.

"Love Riddle...is a seemingly simple but intriguing puzzle box of an EP, a smooth and slick little musical mechanism that displays surprising weight and complexity." - Torontoist
CLARA VENICE plays an array of instruments including Theremin, Moog's newest instrument: the Theremini, electric violin, guitar, ukulele and glockenspiel, creating an electronic orchestra, in which she will perform at The Ballet. This performance will also include a new set design featuring interactive Rainbow Dream Clouds created by Sydney Krause (Arcade Fire, The Barr Brothers, The Weakerthans), which glow in different colours in sync with Clara's Theremin compositions.

CLARA VENICE also wears her art on her sleeve. Her mesmerizing visual style transforms from 21st century pop princess to Tokyo street style to new romantic realness, from song to song, as she draws listeners into her playful and melodic dream world. She is one of the few composers in the world who writes pop music for the Theremin, which adds an emotional and haunting diversity to her music.

Her debut EP Love Riddle was co-produced by Kevin Hearn (Barenaked Ladies, Rheostatics, Lou Reed) and mixed by Dave Ogilvie (Nine Inch Nails, Skinny Puppy, Carly Rae Jepsen).
