Hailed as one of Canada’s "hottest young guitar players,"Kristin Sweetland has been much-lauded for her intricate instrumental guitarwork, rich vocals and enchanting stage presence. A born performer and true road-warrior, Sweetland brings her wild tales of adventure to the stage in a stunning and compelling spectacle. Her albums include "Own Sweet Time," released in Fall 2007, and her critically acclaimed debut, "Root, Heart & Crown." Both albums were produced by Juno award-winning multiinstrumentalist Ken Whiteley, and showcase Sweetland’s stellar guitar stylings alongside powerful melodies and deeply intelligent songwriting. Musically, Sweetland draws on broad influences from folk/roots, classical, flamenco, world music and rock-n-roll traditions in ways that are rich, delicious, utterly refined and unmistakably Sweetlandish.

"Powerful guitar and a true original" - James Keelaghan

"Great melodies, great lyrics, great musicianship, great voice and great attitude." -Alex Mason, producer, CBC Radio’s Sounds Like Canada

Add your voice to our chorus, and let us raise them all in a shouted “NO MORE”, and please ask your friends to add theirs as well, let us become too loud to be ignored!!

We have to organise a dinner with Eric too. I was happy to read that you have found your distribution in France. That's very cool. Eric is a very nice and honest guy. You won't regret it.
Keep me updated once you are in Paris lady

Kristin,

Glad you enjoyed the SXSW photos. It was a pleasure meeting you and sharing lunch on St. Patrick's Day. Who would have thought lunch involved an Irishman, a Croatian, two Texans, and a delightful Canadian?!

I must admit I am captivated with your music and guitar work after soaking in your tunes. And, your photographic eye through the camera lens possesses a je ne sais quoi I find quite artistic. Oh, and your French lyrics are appealing, of course.

Happy journeys to France in June.

Au revoir,
--greg
