Constance Isabelle Kaldor, born on May 9, 1953, in Regina, Saskatchewan, is a Canadian folk singer‑songwriter. After a BFA in theatre from the University of Alberta in 1976, she left theatre in 1979 to pursue music full‑time and founded the independent label Coyote Entertainment in 1981. Her early releases, One Of These Days (1981), Moonlight Grocery (1984), and New Songs for an Old Celebration (1986), established her in the Canadian folk scene, and she toured with Stan Rogers in the early 1980s. Connie Kaldor’s catalog includes Lullaby Berceuse (1988), Love is a Truck (2000), and the award‑winning children’s albums A Duck in New York City (2003) and A Poodle in Paris (2004), both earning Juno Awards for Best Children’s Album. She was made a Member of the Order of Canada in 2006, received an honorary Doctorate of Fine Arts from the University of Regina in 2009, and a Western Literature Association Distinguished Achievement Award in 2014. Her eighteenth album Keep Going (2023) continued to showcase her songwriting across folk, children’s, and feminist themes.
