Liner notes
Saskatchewan is home for some of Canada’s most talented singers, songwriters and musicians. This album displays the tremendous scope and originality of their work. Over 100 of Saskatchewan’s finest performing artists have pooled their creative resources to give you Saskatchewan After Dark. I wish to thank each of them for their contribution to this “musical milestone”. Any profits generated by the sale of this album will be used to develop these and other Saskatchewan recording artists in the future.
Whatever your tastes in music may be, you’re going to enjoy Saskatchewan After Dark.
