We're excited to launch a brand-new chapter in the Songwriters From Here And Away story with the debut episode of our monthly concert series, Songwriters From Here And Away – Wolfville Edition, presented in partnership with local host and songwriter Mike Glenn.

Recorded live in the heart of Wolfville, this inaugural concert showcases acclaimed Canadian folk artist Kim Barlow alongside a preview of several outstanding songwriters who will be appearing in future editions of the series.

Originally from Nova Scotia and later a cornerstone of the Yukon folk scene for more than two decades, Kim Barlow is a two-time Juno-nominated songwriter, celebrated for her imaginative storytelling, distinctive clawhammer banjo style, and deeply original folk compositions. She has released multiple acclaimed albums, toured across Canada and internationally, collaborated with artists including Old Man Luedecke, Christine Fellows, and Mathias Kom, and earned recognition through both Juno and Nova Scotia Music Award nominations.

Also featured are songs from several remarkable artists you'll be hearing more from in upcoming Wolfville Edition episodes:

Lily Gunn – A compelling emerging voice whose songs blend thoughtful lyricism, emotional honesty, and contemporary folk influences.

Glenn & Tregunno – The songwriting partnership of Mike Glenn and Nancy Tregunno, bringing together rich harmonies, heartfelt storytelling, and a deep connection to the communities and landscapes of Nova Scotia.

Kim Matheson – A veteran Maritime songwriter known for finely crafted songs, memorable melodies, and performances that connect with audiences through authenticity and warmth.

Jessie Potter – A rising singer-songwriter whose music combines poetic insight with contemporary folk sensibilities, delivering songs that are both intimate and engaging.
