Saskatchewan Country Closeup – Alex Runions

Joined on the Saskatchewan Country Closeup by Alex Runions.

With more than a decade of memorable live performances at some of the most iconic venues in the country, including Big Valley Jamboree, the Grey Cup, and the CCMA Awards Week Songwriters’ Series, it’s easy to see why Runions’ hometown of Kipling, Saskatchewan raised a billboard in his honour.

Runions’ collaboration track “Just Watch Me” with Dean Kush and JJ Voss cemented the Saskatchewan-born artist’s status as a rising star on an international level, serving as the cornerstone to a fundraising campaign for the Canadian Cancer Society.

We talk life during the pandemic, new music, and what’s on the way
