Whether it’s songs about passion or songs about panties, she writes about real things in a rooted and poetic way. After a number of years studying theatre, roaming Western Canada, acting in plays, frequenting blues clubs and playing her guitar, Higgins finally settled down in Saskatchewan and that’s when music took the driver’s seat! As a songwriter, she has been influenced by a range of artists from Memphis Minnie, Billie Holiday, Big Bill Broonzy to Joni Mitchell, Dolly Parton and Bob Dylan.

Tickets: $20.00, available from the Kerry Vickar Centre Box Office 306-752-4177; Heather at City Hall 306-752-5911 or Gailmarie at the Museum 306-752-5870.
