ARTIST WEBSITE

Alberta's Scott Cook (last seen in Lansing at the Ten Pound Fiddle concert series) has been living out of a van or a backpack for a dozen years now,  touring almost incessantly across Canada, the US, Europe, Asia,  Australia and elsewhere, and distilling his experiences into  straight-talking, keenly observant verse.  His fourth independent  release, One More Time Around, was nominated for a Canadian  Folk Music Award, and its opening track "Pass It Along" won the Folk and  Acoustic category in the 2013 UK Songwriting Contest, with UK magazine Maverick Country naming him "one of Canada's most inspiring and imaginative storytellers".  His sixth studio album Further Down the Line won  him his second CFMA nomination (English Songwriter of the Year),  and comes packaged in a 132-page book containing a look back, in words  and pictures, on a decade of full-time travel.  He's currently touring  in support of his seventh collection, Tangle of Souls, which  comes in a hardcover book of road stories and ruminations, both personal  and political.  Cook is one of the hardest-working DIY troubadours on  the road today, averaging around 150 shows including a dozen festivals  every year since 2007.  All the hard miles notwithstanding, he still  believes that songs can change your life, and your life can change the  world.

"As good a modern folkie as we have these days.  A voice perfect for the genre.  An understanding beyond the norm."  –No Depression

"He sings his heart and soul, and in doing so lets light flood into your own... Truly one of Woody Guthrie's children." –RnR Magazine
