Mary Liv Live at Nelson Legion
Get ready to vibe with Mary Liv and enjoy a chill, fun-filled hangout you won’t want to miss!
Come on out to The Nelson Legion on May 16th at 6pm to see Mary Liv!
From your 1996 Ford Ranger to the old love letters your ex hid, there are stories that need to be told. Independent, femme folk singer Mary Liv based out of Saskatoon creates relatable songs from real life.
Her song, “In The Ground”, won the SOCAN Young Canadian Songwriter Award (2025). Inspired by the song-writing of artists such as Roger Miller and Abigail Lapell, Liv sings a blend of high-energy country songs as well as more femme-folk, protest songs. As a multi-instrumentalist with deep roots in Canadian fiddle and country music, Liv draws melodies and phrasing from her roots. She has released a traditional fiddle album, Fiddlin Around (2024) as well as an all originals album, Hello There (2025).
Touring around the Canadian prairies for the past two years, Liv has played at venues such as The Bassment (SK) as well as festivals such as Ness Creek Music Festival (SK). “Whether I’m singing to coffee shop crowds or to music festival audiences, my music is intended to get everyone dancing,” says Liv.
