Amy’s voice is a combination of the smooth of the pavement and the gravel of the road…

Amy has an instinctive ability to craft stories into song and deliver them with the sincerity and passion of a best friend – qualities that make Amy an undeniable Canadian talent.

Amy was born a singer, and grew into a songwriter through a lifetime of experience. She puts it all together in engaging performances that show off her range and power. an evening with Amy Bishop delivers rollicking “ain’t life grand” road songs, soulful versions of love-gone-wrong ballads, and folk-based acoustic numbers that allow her naked vocal beauty to shine through.

Strange Path is the name of Stagger’s newest album and book, a name that applies as much to his unexpected route from the BC punk scene to southern-Alberta singer songwriter as it does to the album’s own evolution. 

He’s constantly giving his audience new reasons to follow along, from production work for other artists at his own Rebeltone Ranch studio in Lethbridge to a troika of new creations.

Stagger recently followed up new albums Me and the Mountain, and Strange Path, with a 146-page memoir, also titled Strange Path.

It’s the kind of sound many musicians take years searching for, and since the rave reception of Mariel Buckley’s acclaimed sophomore album, Driving In The Dark, she continues to set the bar for roots music in Canada.

Buckley’s momentum has built quickly, and she finds herself as one of alt-country’s busiest acts, with recent performances in support of k.d. lang, Hayes Carll, Sarah Shook & The Disarmers, The Deep Dark Woods and Serena Ryder; as well as entertaining audiences throughout North America.

A mesmerizing performer and studious songwriter, Mariel Buckley proves that with each new endeavour, she is bound to vulnerability and truth. This signature candour is what captivates audiences and listeners alike, and has planted her flag firmly as a songwriter in it for the long haul.
