About Ira Pettle:

Ira Pettle is an actor, singer/songwriter, arts educator, and creative whose debut record, A Little Bit (co-written with Juno award-winning Singer/Songwriter Norman Foote), fulfills a long-awaited dream to put his love of storytelling into song. Though this is his debut album, Ira is by no means new to the stage. Having trained as an actor, he is a key player in BC’s performing arts scene, most notably in Whistler, where he was named the 2019 Champion of Arts and Culture at the Whistler Excellence Awards. Known as ‘DJ Ira’ throughout the Sea to Sky corridor, he is already one of Canada’s most sought-after family entertainers. This next chapter of his life’s work is sure to make a big splash across multi-generational audiences.
