ARTIST BIO:

Kristina Olsen, Canada/USA.  A superb multi-instrumentalist as well as an award-winning songwriter with a big bluesy voice, Kristina has audiences around the world coming back for more.  Her mix of powerful songs ranging from sassy bottleneck blues to lilting ballads to swing jazz to raunch and roll (as well as her hilarious storytelling) makes for a diverse and satisfying musical experience, on stage and on disc.

In 2016 she released her 15th recording, Sweet Stillness.  Her songs have been recorded by Eric Bibb, Fairport Convention, Mary Coughlan, Maddy Prior and Mollie O’Brien 1 among others.  She has been a session player for Michelle Shocked, Rikki Lee Jones and Mary Coughlan. With a Bachelor’s of Music from Berklee College of Music in guitar and interdisciplinary studies, she loves teaching at music camps and is passionate about unlocking the mysteries of music with her students. Kristina also has released an enhanced ebook with 20 imbedded songs which is also available as an audio book called “They Paid Us In Tub Time”

ABOUT HOME ROUTES:

Winnipeg based non-profit organization Home Routes / Chemin Chez Nous was initiated by the founders of the Winnipeg Folk Festival and the West End Cultural Centre, Mitch Podolak and Ava Kobrinsky, alongside, Tim Osmond with a start-up grant from Canada Council For The Arts. Under the leadership of Executive Director, Leonard Podolak, the organization operates with a full staff alongside the support of a nationally based volunteer Board of Directors.

Our organization was created to champion artists and volunteer concert hosts  in communities nationwide. This has grown into a group of people and organization of almost 200, who each host 6 shows a year in houses and small halls in their communities

In recent years we have expanded our mandate to include a series of Community Workshops and Jam Groups, and in 2018 we founded the Winnipeg Crankie Festival, which is a participatory and collaborative event celebrating 18th century Moving Panoramas.
