Calgary 
Events Description
Calgary native and a favourite son of the club, James Keelaghan needs little introduction to Canadian folk music fans. He built a nation-wide audience in the 1990s with a slew of albums full of story songs that reconstruct history and reimagine justice (“Cold Missouri Waters” and “Kiri’s Piano” are two memorable examples), earning a JUNO award along the way for his album My Skies (1994) and collaborating for a time with Oscar Lopez. James went on to become Artistic Director of the Summerfolk Music and Crafts Festival in Owen Sound in 2011, but has continued to perform and record. The notable, crowd-funded release Second-Hand (2022) testifies to his current direction as an artist. We proudly present James to close our 53rd season. m
Opening performer: Mia Kelly (QC)
