Penny Lang

Penny Lang's career began in the Montréal folk scene of the '60s, and since then she's performed folk, blues, country and gospel standards in each of the past four decades. During that time she's performed at clubs such as the Bitter End in New York, and the Riverboat in Toronto, and graced the stages of virtually every folk festival across Canada.

Dubbed 'Silverwolf' by the Montréal media, she and her Martin guitar have established themselves as something of an institution. "The fresh, jazzy feel-good voice of Penny soft-sells her message of peace and understanding amongst us all," is the way Kate McGarrigle describes Lang.

Her most recent recording is Carry On Children, released this past spring.
