  • Heather Gardner (Peachy Keen, Canada)

    With Heather at the helm, everything is going to be peachy keen. With professional training in piano performance and arts management, her ears intimately understand the relationship between song and picture, and how to harmoniously capture that magic within any budget parameters. Heather balances her right brain creativity with meticulous left brain attention to detail, allowing for a seamless licensing process from concept to contract to cue sheet. After over 17 years in music supervision, her credits span worldwide television series, feature films, TV movies, advertising campaigns, and video games, garnering her three Canadian Sync Awards wins and many more nominations.

    Heather serves as President of the Guild of Music Supervisors, Canada, a non-profit organization with the mission to promote the craft of music supervision in Canada. She is incredibly keen about the intersection of music and filmed media, and the transformative power of the perfect needle drop moment to tell a story. Whether securing the rights to your dream song or developing a project’s sonic palette from scratch, Heather is a consummate collaborator.

    In 2025, Heather was named to Billboard Canada’s inaugural 40 Under 40 list, honouring the next generation of innovators shaping the future of music. When not falling down a musical rabbit hole or (kindly) harassing folks for clearances, Heather is a semi-professional theme parker, mozzarella stick enthusiast, and mom of two small hooligans and one old cocker spaniel.
