Buffy Sainte-Marie's New CD: Running for the Drum


Buffy has released an exciting new cd, her first release since her landmark 1992 Coincidence and Likely Stories. It is now available as a limited edition with the DVD Buffy Sainte-Marie: A MultiMedia Life.

Running For The Drum contains twelve new inspired songs and stories about current events, art, politics and the aboriginal people, that showcase her emotional integrity and thrilling voice!

On the Buffy Sainte-Marie: A MultiMedia Life DVD, for the first time Buffy's extraordinary life story is told on screen - from her early days bursting onto the Greenwich Village folk scene in the 60's, to becoming an Oscar-winning songwriter, a Sesame Street regular, an international Aboriginal spokesperson and a pioneering digital artist". The hour long documentary also features interviews with several well known musicians and includes archival footage and music from a dozen or so songs of hers including the Oscar winning "Up Where We Belong", the anti-war anthem "Universal Soldier" and more.

Buffy will embark on her first full scale national cross Canada tour in many years that will begin October 31st in Toronto and will then bring her to all other major centers through 2009!
