Our gal in the GPS device
Her name is Serena. I’m not overly fond of her voice, but I’m obliged to listen to it if I want to stay out of travel trouble. I’m used to her now, having accompanied her on many forays into unknown territory. In unfamiliar regions, with hard deadlines to honour, Serena’s the gal. Some are not as [...]
lost – last blog.
I seemed to have lost my past post. Probably trying to make these photos fit on the page in a sensible way. I have to forget that now, and let them fall where they may. They include: a western sky: me either trying to hide my neck in my sweater or grab a quick nap; [...]
Home and its abundant joy
After an early morning drive from Prince Albert to Saskatoon – and following a long flight delay – we departed for home. A bit of concern in making the connecting flight from Toronto to Halifax, but we made it – not without some frantic hustling and hearing my name called over the announcement system. When [...]

They sell CDs, make food appear in dressing rooms, attend to your comfort- they are the lifeblood of the venues. Bragg Creek is outstanding…in fact, all of our Alberta dates have been smooth and [...]
Day 7
Cochrane – one of the good ones. These folks in Southern Alberta are friendly and easy- going. Another great audience, great presenter, and really good hospitality. Kind of lost track of what day of the week it is, but it’s all good, no matter the day. I guess my show at the Carleton was erroneously [...]
Day 6
Over another few mountain tops and we were in Kelowna. Great theatre, the Kelowna Arts Centre. These good venues make it so much easier to relax on stage. Have to say, Raylene and Cindy are singing like angels, and I’m singing like an admirer of Raylene and Cindy. I’m a hanger on for dear life [...]
Day 5
What a great time on Salt Spring. It left us with about four hours sleep to make the early ferry, but we’re holding up. After we dock, there’s a five hour drive to Kelowna. It will be a breeze after the drives from Airdrie to Rossland, Rossland to Salt Spring. But what drives they were. [...]

Media Info
Often described as a "writer's writer", Susan Crowe is one of Canada's most respected singer songwriters in the folk genre. At once complex, challenging and accessible, Susan's intelligent and moving songs have captivated audiences and reviewers from coast to coast, continent to continent. She possesses, in the words of Britain's Folk Roots magazine, "that rare ability of crafting a lyric that bears scrutiny on its own terms." That rare ability has earned her two Juno nominations, and nominations from both the West Coast and East Coast Music Awards.
