She's more than happy to be coming back to her home province.
Connie Kaldor, a singer songwriter originally from Saskatchewan who now lives in Montreal, will be in the province this spring.
Kaldor will be doing a tour in late March that includes a stop at Assumption Church in Marysburg.
Kaldor loves coming back to the Prairies, finding inspiration in the open spaces. "I find them creative, stimulating, stunning, beautiful, and great," she said. "Everyone has some place that rings with you and the Prairies have that for me."
Kaldor, who has never been to Marysburg, but who has been to Humboldt, is looking forward to the concert.
"It doesn't matter the size of the place, people come to see you," she said. "These concerts allow me to sing my Prairie stuff. The people there get it."
Whether it's songs about the landscape, the sky, or the love that flowers in those places, Kaldor knows people in Saskatchewan understand what she's singing about.
Kaldor will be performing songs off her latest album, "Postcards from the Road," as well as older songs.
Her new album encompasses a variety of styles once again, but all the songs have a sense of place in them, Kaldor explained.
"They are all a link to places I've been," she said. "It's what you might write back to someone while you're travelling."
One person has described the album as "a GPS for the heart," Kaldor noted.
Kaldor will also be performing songs from her previous albums, which people always want to hear songs they've heard before.
"As a Canadian performer you need to appeal to a large number of people and write about everything," Kaldor said.
Kaldor, who is well known for her stage presence, always tries to have some fun while performing.
"You have to have a sense of humour," she said. "I get to make jokes and have some fun."
The local concert, which is a fund-raiser for the restoration of Assumption Church in Marysburg, is set for March 24.
