Alberta

From the foothills and prairie towns to Edmonton, Calgary, Lethbridge, Medicine Hat, Fort MacLeod, St. Albert, Innisfail, Consort, Thorsby, Turner Valley, Saddle Lake, Jasper, Peace River, and beyond, the Alberta Room brings together one of the most wide-ranging provincial collections in the Museum of Canadian Music. This playlist traces Alberta’s recorded sound across country, folk, jazz, garage rock, psych, punk, Indigenous music, blues, synth, roots, pop, metal, comedy, and experimental recordings — revealing how much of Canada’s musical story has passed through this province’s cities, small towns, studios, stages, and communities. The collection includes artists born in Alberta, based in Alberta, shaped by Alberta, or historically connected to the province through recording, performance, or musical identity.

Featured artists and groups include: 49th Parallel, Absolute 9, aka Guitar (William H. Noble Jr Hank Noble), Al Owchar & Rob Osberg, Alberta Slim, Allan Sisters (Jackie and Coralie), Allen Christie, Appleshine, Arlen Salte, Arlene Mantle, Asani, Assailant, Axis of Conversation, Back Alley John, Bardic Form, Barry Allen, Barry Boyd & the Frantiks, Beldens Wall, Ben Bogaardt, Betty Ford, Bev Munro, Big Hank Lionhart and a Fistful of Blues, Big Miller, Bigfoot Rocketship, Biggy Twiggy Band, Bil Hetherington and the Asian Tigers, Billy Cowsill, Bitchsplitter, Blank Generation, Bob Bradburn, Bob Kitella, Bob McMullin, Bob Ruzicka, Bobby Cameron, Bonnie Dobson, Bootleg, Boulevard, Bourne and Macleod, Brad Richards, Brian Bickerton, Brothers Bogaardt, Bruce Haack, Bruce Innes, Bruce Kiely, Bruno Gerussi & Tommy Ambrose, Bryan Pickering, Buck Swan and the Desperados, Buddy Gale, Buddy Reese, Bullyproof, Cadence Weapon, Cal Cavendish, Calgary Kid (Alfred Allen Erwin), Calgary Range Riders, Captain Tractor, Cara Luft, Carl Graves, Carl Peterson, Carmen Lindsay, Carolyn Harley, Carson Cole, Cathy Clark, CC Johnson, Chandells, Charlotte Command & Sarah, Cherry Pie, Cheryl Fisher, Cheryl Keyla, Cheyenne Winter, Chieftones (Canada's All Indian Band), ChixDiggit, Choke, Chris Nielsen, Christie Simmons, Circle Widens, Clinton Pelletier, Clymaxe, Colleen Brown, Corb Lund Band, Craig Farraway, Craig Young, Cutz, Dallas Arcand Sr., Darkroom, Dave Filchak, David Thiaw, Deon Blyan, Dewline, Diamond White Joe, Dianne James, Dick Damron, Diefenbakers, Disciples of Power, Dixie Innes Lee, Don Baker, Don Thompson 'D.T.', Donald Ray Johnson, Done On Bradstreet, Doug Cox, Doug Randle, Down Syndrome, Duane Davis (Duane Stewart), Dwayne Ford, Dyeing Merchants, Echoes and a Dream, Eclectrip, Ed Evanko, Ellen McIlwaine, Erin Ross, Ernie Williams, Eustace Hinds E., Exit 303, Facecrime, Fire Engine Red, Floyd Sneed, Floyd Tolman, Forbidden Dimension, Fosterchild, Frank Liddy, Franklins, Freddie Pelletier and Clinton, Gabrielle Bugeaud, Gainsborough Gallery, Gary Buck, Gaye Delorme, Geoff Edmunds, Glenn Dixon, Gloria Kaye, Golden Calgarians, Gordie West, Great Speckled Bird, Great Western Orchestra, Guidonna Lee, Hammersmith, Hank Smith (Heinz Schmidt), Hans Staymer Band, Happy Feeling, Harry Rusk, Home Grown, Hot Club Edmonton, Hot Nasties, Huevos Rancheros, Ian & Sylvia Tyson, Ian McDougall, Ian Tyson, Iggy & Mario, Indian Jack (John Charles Visser), Irregular Orchestra, Ivan Daines, Jack Union, Jackpine Savage, James Murdoch Band, James Robinson H., Jenson Interceptor, Jerry Jerry and the Sons of Rhythm Orchestra, Jim Foster, Jim Peace, Jim Serediak, Jo Paul Ann, Joanna Borromeo, Joe Kozak, John Mann, John Wort Hannam, Johnny Flamingo, Johnny Harlow, Joni Mitchell, Jordan Klassen, Joyce Smith, Jr. Gone Wild, Jukebox Leigh's Western Cabaret, k.d. lang, Karroll Brothers, Kat Danser, Keith Hitchner, Keith Potts & Family, Keith Potts & Family with Lee & Lance Trineer, Ken Callies, Kids (2), King Beezz, Larry Gustafson, Larry Lee & Straight Clean and Simple, Laura Vinson, Laurence Pugh, Lee Hudson, Leeroy Stagger, Leon Jones, Les Welsh, Lewis Baloue, Lewis Pederson III, Linda Curtis, Lloyd Dolen, Lords, Louie Timoteo, Love and Truth Company, Luke Thomson, Magic Music, Magnetic North, Malibu Kens, Mantra (2), Mark Korven, Mary Saxton, Matt Blais, Matt Patershuk, Me Three, Mega, Mel Hyland, Mel Shaw, Miesha and the Spanks, Modern Minds, Moe Marshall, Mole City, Money, Moses, Mynk Hollow, Mystery Romance, Nadia Kazmi, Nancy Nash, NEO A4, Nerve, New Wing, Nex'd, No River, Noah Zacharin, Nomads (aka Lennie Richards & the Nomads), Office, Oh Canada Eh? 2006 Cast, Ohama (Tona Walt Ohama), Olaf Sveen, One Horse Blue, Opposite, Original Caste, P.J.
