Kim Beggs
Yukoner Kim Beggs’ infuses sweet old-time roots country with dark tales of Northern life in Canada.
The Toronto Star calls her a "masterful writer" and CBC Radio One raves that "her lyrics are high poetry".
Dirty Linen Magazine says "Beggs’ endearing voice brings out the best in her songs... It's not surprising that [her album] Wanderer’s Paean has been nominated for several awards in Canada."
A Journeyman Carpenter and acclaimed songwriter, who lived with woodstove and no running water for well over a decade, Beggs is fueled by the Yukon’s notable, same sort of hardscrabble lifestyle and unshakable sense of community, that influenced early Appalachian music over a century ago.
