She attacks hidden desires, imparts social wisdom, and laments unsettling experiences through her lyrical abilities while satisfying melodic cravings and selling raw emotion.

- Blake Berglund

Kara Golemba's most recent release, "Keep These Stories Safe" has a self-confidence woven through its themes and tones. The writer's life experiences and roles are distilled throughout her first full-length album to awaken a listener to their own vulnerabilities. This craft is what recognizes Golemba as a two time recipient of the Spirit of Saskatchewan Songwriting Award.


An upbringing in British Columbia's Okanagan Valley included the discovery of a 1973 Morris classical guitar in the back of her mother's closet. The early influence of its nylon strings
gravitated Golemba to more complex chord progressions and voicings apparent on "Keep
These Stories Safe". As a testament to her abilities she shares sonic space with revered
Winnipeg musician, Joey Landreth on her song "Box Labelled You", a finalist in the Canadian Songwriting Competition.


The denim guitar case that accompanied that first guitar came with Golemba to Saskatchewan and her original country music leanings expanded beyond any one genre. With production sensibilities reminiscent of Susan Tedeschi or Brandi Carlile, Golemba holds her listeners with both a powerfully dynamic voice and a hooky guitar. Kara Golemba is a prairie festival favourite and an industry head-turner. The Proudly Saskatchewan Showcase winner received a nomination from The Saskatchewan Music Awards 2022 for Roots Artist of the year. "Keep These Stories Safe" was declared one of the Top 10 albums at the Saskatchewan Music awards in 2023 and confirms Golemba’s growth in becoming a Western Canadian staple.
