Garnet played for an hour, sharing a variety of his own tunes, and stories to accompany the music. Then into the second hour he began a rendition of his brother Stan's song "North West Passage" along with Connie and her bass player ... The second hour was Connie singing along with "her people." (Connie hails from the prairies, and her entertaining stories reflected the reality of prairie life ...)
It was a distinctly and very definitely Canadian moment with two of Canada's premier folk artists, sharing their talent, their humour and their wonderful music ...
Garnet Rogers 
Connie Kaldor
You can't mention Canadian Folk Music without mentioning:the late (and deeply missed) Stan Rogers !!
