Kenton & Lise
About Us
Kenton & Lise are a musical comedy duo based in Toronto, ON. Their focus is to make science and natural history more accessible through song. They are a real life husband and wife creative team.
Kenton & Lise debuted their song "Permian Period" on Canada's Got Talent, and the response prompted them to create an act for schools, called Kenton & Lise Explore the Paleozoic, the development of which is made possible through a Theatre Creation Grant from the Ontario Arts Council.
