RIVER POETS
THE FOLK-ROCK DUO OF
JO & CABEL JOHNSON
ALBERTA, CANADA
From the Pacific coast to the Rocky Mountains, feeding into the North and South Saskatchewan Rivers. Ripping north to the tundra and permafrost of the Territories, the Northwest wind bringing us back past prairie highways of beaming canola, tawny wheat and broken-blue flax. The Great Lakes. The resonant and varied history of Canada’s Indigenous peoples, Pre-Confederation Canada in New France and Old York. the rich, vibrant Atlantic Canadian provinces with salt on-the-air, golden-era boats in the water and bright red mud lining its fertile soil.
River Poets writes songs for all Canadians.
