My guest today is a Canadian folk singer songwriter.
Born in Toronto into a family of Polish immigrants,
music was always a close presence in the family home.
Her mother taught piano and guitar.
After graduating with a degree in English Literature from the University of Western Ontario,
she began to pursue music as her own career path.
Her debut album, oh My Darling,
was released by rough trade in 2007 and blended traditional folk with modern sensibilities.
The record garnered critical acclaim
and set the tone for a career marked by emotional depth and melodic richness.
Known for her intimate live performances,
my Guest has earned a devoted international following and multiple award nominations,
cementing her place as a vital voice in contemporary folk music.
And her new album, Basia's Place,
is released later this week and was produced in between bouts of playing RPGs.
Welcome, Basia Bulat.
Hey, I just have to correct you on one thing.
Yes?
Did I say your name wrong?
