Ian Tyson

Ian Tyson at the Edmonton Folk Music Festival.

Ian Tyson's long history as a one of Canada's most important songwriters is well documented. He is a Juno Award winner as well as the Order of Canada. Such songs as four Strong Winds, Someday Soon, Navajo Rug and Springtime in Alberta have become near anthems of the cowboy culture.

His latest album is a collection of songs that reflect the disappearing way of life in the west.
