Back to her Prairie Roots
WIDE OPEN SPACES
Launching September 2025
My upcoming album is a prairie-folk album titled Wide Open Spaces, which celebrates the landscapes, culture, and stories of the Canadian prairies. This album marks a return to Kaldors roots, inspired by her upbringing in Saskatchewan, and serves as a deeply personal exploration of this unique region that hasshaped her identity as an artist.
Writing about the prairies has been a recurring theme in my career. My song Wood River was selected by Canadian Geographic as one of Canadas finest songs. This album deepens that connection, presenting 14 songsthatshine a light on the beauty, resilience, and challenges of prairie life. These songs celebrate the prairies unique cultural identity!
BIO
Connie Kaldor began her career in folk music as part of the Canadian wave alongside artists like Stan Rogers and Valdy. Armed with her enormous stage presence, her unforgettable melodies, and her emotional depth as a songwriter, Connie became a headline act on the festival circuit. Her extensive touring has earned her a loyal fan-base that extends far beyond the traditional boundaries of folk and the Boston Globe has described her as, a masterful performer, wildly funny one moment, deeply personal the next. A three-time Juno Award winner, Connie is a member of the Order of Canada, a Queens Golden Jubilee Medal recipient, holds an honorary doctorate from the University of Regina, and is the first songwriter to receive a Western Literature Association Award of Merit.
In the last year, Connie received a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Woodstock Folk Festival, was nominated for a Canadian Folk Music Award and nominated for Song of the Year at the Folk Alliance International Folk Music Awards.
