Buffy Sainte-Marie – The Roots of Inspiration
Composing a Dream
I was about three years old when a piano became my toy, and I composed my first song around then. Since it was play for me, I just did it until the song was the way I liked it. I’m still the same way.
Music composition is my passion, or my superhobby, so I get right into it and can’t get it out of my head.

Reviews & Interviews on new releases
Review for re-released CD "Up Where We Belong":
"It's almost 40 years since the Canadian folk singer struck a chord with British audiences with the movie theme Soldier Blue. This set of 15 of her greatest hits is testimony to her never-tiring prowess as a prolific songwriter, peace campaigner and native American heroine. Listen to Universal Soldier and try to disagree."

UpBeat: Buffy Sainte-Marie Exclusive
Excerpt from an interview with The Beat magazine, London, November 2010:
"Buffy Sainte-Marie is an international superstar performer, an anti-war and rights icon, and a leading songwriter who has given the world classics like "Up Where We Belong" and "Until It's Time for You to Go".
The lists of artists who have covered her songs is a true accolade to her gift to write numbers that so vividly and movingly bring into focus how we can all be touched by subjects like love, war, rights, religion and mysticism.
Elvis Presley, Barbra Streisand, Neil Diamond, Donovan, Francoise Hardy, Cher, Joe Cocker and Bobby Darin are a few of the virtual who's who of the music business who have tapped into her rich catalogue.
For someone who has achieved so much – she also wrote one of the greatest peace anthems 'Universal Soldier' – Buffy shows no signs of letting up and still has ambitions to fulfill.
"Yes I do! I wake up in the morning feeling like somebody shot me out of a slingshot! Somehow I've got a lot of energy," Buffy told The Beat by telephone from her home in Hawaii where she has lived for more than 40 years.
Her home underlines how she likes to shun the trappings of stardom and stay close to her Canadian Indian roots.
"I live on a goat farm in the mountains. I'm raising 27 goats and two horses and a kitty cat. Plus I'm on the road with a rock 'n' roll band..."

New release: The Pathfinder: Buried Treasures
Buffy will be touring in the fall, promoting "Running for the Drum" as well as the just released new CD "The Pathfinder: Buried Treasures." This album is a digitally re-mastered version of three albums: "Buffy," "Changing Woman" and "Sweet America" on the Gypsy Boy Music label, distributed by Appleseed Records in the U.S., and EMI in Canada.
These songs, written in the 1970s and new to most Buffy fans, fit right in with both her classics and more recent songs. Look forward to hearing them live this fall. Tour response to her song
Generation live in concert across Canada has been incredible. Hear it here.
