Artist Spotlight: Mike Stack 🎶

At South Country Fair, we love artists who bring more than just music to the stage—and Mike Stack does exactly that.

A Western Canadian singer-songwriter rooted in folk and Americana traditions, Mike’s music is shaped by years of touring, storytelling, and real-life experience. From his early days performing in cafés to sharing stages with iconic Canadian acts, his sound has grown into something deeply authentic and unmistakably his own.

His latest release, Lucky Man, is a heartfelt collection of songs exploring love, loss, resilience, and gratitude—blending ballads, bluegrass, and roots-driven rhythms into a rich, lived-in sound.

Some performances feel less like a concert—and more like a shared moment. That’s the magic of Those Folk.

This husband-and-wife duo (Lawrence Menard & Clare Quinn) brings together folk traditions from across the globe, blending Americana roots with rich storytelling and stunning vocal harmonies.

Their songs explore love, hope, belonging, and the human experience—carried by a warm mix of guitar, mandolin, banjo, and accordion that feels both timeless and fresh.

With a sound inspired by classic folk duos and a stage presence full of genuine connection, Those Folk create the kind of performance that draws you in—and keeps you there.

Under the prairie sky, surrounded by community, their music is right at home. 🌾

If you’ve been around the Fair for a while, you already know these three are Fair Family through and through. They’ve supported SCF for years, performed multiple times on our stages, and have become true fan favourites — the kind of act that brings everyone to their feet and reminds us why this festival feels like home.
This Calgary‑rooted trio blends roots, rockabilly, folk, proto‑jazz, and vintage gems into a high‑energy, dance‑ready show that’s impossible not to love. Their sets move effortlessly from Hendrix to Hank Williams, from jug‑band classics to deep‑cut blues, all delivered with their signature vintage style and infectious rhythm.

Artist Spotlight: Welcome back, Leaf Rapids! 🌾✨

We are happy to welcome Leaf Rapids back to the South Country stage this July.

The Winnipeg-based four-piece—Keri Latimer, Devin Latimer, Joanna Miller, and Chris Dunn—returns with their signature "Cinematic Canadiana" sound. Their music is a beautiful blend of sweet harmonies, lush guitar, and the ethereal pull of the theremin, capturing the vastness and mood of the prairie landscape.
From their rootsy storytelling to the spacey, spaghetti-western vibes of their latest record, Velvet Paintings, their performances have always felt right at home in Fort Macleod. We look forward to hearing how their sound has evolved since they last joined us.
