Donna Durand

Be your note
Remember the lips where wind-breath
originated, and let your note be clear.
Don't try to end it.
BE your note.
I'll show you how it's enough.
Go up on the roof at night
in this city of the soul.
Let everyone climb on their roofs
and sing their notes.
Sing loud!
Rumi 13th century poet

I am a singer/songwriter from central Alberta, Canada. I happily play and sing solo or with others at gatherings from house concerts to coffee houses to festivals. I also write personal stories/songs, on commission as with Here's Cheers.

"Thank you for playing at the Cabin. It was great to have you play & to be able to accompany you! I heard many good comments afterwards about your songs & professionalism!" Tim Fraser, owner of Cabin Cafe, Calgary, Alberta

"Durand’s pretty voice fits with virtually any kind of music she puts her hand to- she knows much about writing real, authentic lyrics and tunes that reach the heart. She’s also a compelling storyteller through her music, a gift that really shines through..." Mark Weber, Red Deer Express

I am keenly interested in the creation and promotion of singer songwriters circles in this region and the global community:
1) to increase awareness of Prairies music
2) inspire peace and well being through sharing the perspective and uniqueness of others
The circle is wide and open...

Re: Songwriters Circle Series

“With the calibre of artists Donna Durand has lined up for these evenings and with the glimpse into the intimate environment of the songwriter these evenings provide, there is no doubt in our minds the Songwriters Circle at The Matchbox will be revered as one of the most premiere musical events in the province – no question,” said Stephen Ridge, owner of The Matchbox.
