About Ross Fizzard:

A son of Fort Mac and well-travelled folk singer, Ross Fizzard writes forward, witty country songs like John Prine with a voice like Ramblin’ Jack Elliott. Working his way out of the Northern Alberta mines, he found inspiration to sing and write from artists such as The Band, Corb Lund, Leonard Cohen, and Charley Crockett and has since captivated audiences with illustrating verses and bright refrains.
Ross is a student of duality. Of comedy and tragedy. From imaginative tunes like “I Don’t Know” to contemplative ballads like “Down The River”, this music smells of cheap Canadian beer, gasoline, donair shops and pine trees, yet tastes like mussels and champagne. Ross earned a Montreal living as one half of the duo, The Gardeners, packing intimate venues with fascinated followers and leaving them wanting more. Now residing in Calgary, Ross joins the vibrant country/folk scene sharing bills with local favourites such as Noeline Hofmann, Amy Nelson, and Sean Burns. Highlight performances include Mariposa Folk Festival and East Coulee Fest.
