Cam Penner: Memphis

Cam PennerToday’s featured artist is Calgary, Alberta singer-songwriter Cam Penner and a track from his fifth quality effort, ‘To Build a Fire’. ‘Memphis’ is the sixth song on this stellar 10 song folk/americana release from 2013.

Cam’s songs look to come from the life experiences starting when at eighteen Penner left small town life to wander the highways and back roads of North America. A year later he found himself in Chicago serving mystery soup and stale bread to two hundred and fifty homeless men a day. Next, a women & children’s shelter, then youth shelters and detox centers, thirteen years. Cam would spend cathartic hours writing and playing his guitar, exorcising his emotions through music and eventually decided to become a full time touring artist.

His inspiring bio best states that ‘To Build a Fire’ is full of hope. It’s full of love. It’s electrifying and provoking. It’s full of everything we should be looking for, not only musically, but in life.
