Cori Brewster - Secretary

In the past 20 years I have played music for children in a one-room school house on the Amazon river in Peru, busked on the streets of Santiago, Chile and Cairo Egypt, toured Canada, New Zealand, Germany, I have witnessed the power of what music can do and that’s why I love it. I have showcased at almost all the conferences, organized song writing workshops, hosted a radio show on CJSR, was a music supervisor for a documentary called `pretty ladies, fast horses’. My fourth CD, Buffalo Street was named one of the Fab Five albums of 2009 by CKUA’s David Ward and was the #1 Canadian album at US folk radio last July, while the song “Trono” was the top Canadian song. I have been extremely lucky to have been awarded grants from the Canada Council, Rawlco radio, Factor, AFA, Socan Foundation and recently the Alberta Music administered Exposure travel grant, I’m sure a lot of these grant administrators are wondering when I’m going away, well I’m not… I’m already starting to write new songs for my 5th CD.
