    July 4, 2016 MEDIA FYI 2016 Calgary Stampede Parade Marshals: Jann Arden and Paul Brandt CALGARY, ALBERTA – Calgary Stampede Parade Marshals occupy a prestigious place in the history of the Calgary Stampede. Among other things, they exemplify western heritage, values, and culture. 2016 Parade Marshals: Jann Arden and Paul Brandt In honour of our city’s “Year of Music” celebration, singer-songwriter Jann Arden and homegrown country music superstar Paul Brandt will lead the Calgary Stampede Parade. Fresh off hosting the 2016 Juno Awards, Calgary-born Arden is a singer, songwriter, broadcaster and author. Whether she is captivating audiences with her heartfelt music, entertaining them with her quick wit or sharing her written word in a boldly honest voice – Arden is a Canadian original – a brilliant multi-dimensional talent. Brandt, the most awarded male Canadian Country Music artist in history, had an unlikely journey of humble beginnings and big dreams to fame and stardom. A true Calgary Stampede friend, Brandt headlined the stage for all 10 nights of the 2012 Centennial TransAlta Grandstand Show. History of the Parade Marshal One of the Calgary Stampede’s oldest and proudest traditions is the role of Stampede Parade Marshal. The Parade Marshal not only leads the Parade, but is also a reflection of the values and culture of the community. The very first Calgary Stampede Parade in 1912 was led by 1,800 members of the Treaty 7 First Nations at the request of Stampede visionary, Guy Weadick. People marveled at the grandeur and splendor of seeing 1,800 First Nations people from five different tribes dressed in their traditional regalia.

  • Paul Brandt Biography
    PAUL BRANDT BIOGRAPHY Paul Brandt is the most awarded male Canadian Country Music artist in history. Since his million-selling debut album “Calm Before The Storm”, his has been an unlikely journey of humble beginnings and big dreams to fame and stardom. It is an engaging story of a young man who followed his passion to make a difference in the lives of others using his musical ability. It has been a twisting road that has given him an audience with music legends, global leaders, royalty, and placed him on the world’s largest stages. A former pediatric registered nurse, Brandt had a passion for words and poetry early in life, and began to write music at the age of 13. Greatly inspired by both the Gospel music he heard at the church his family attended, and by the Western heritage, tradition, and culture of 1980s Alberta, the music that he created immediately skewed towards a Singer/Songwriter style, and towards Country Music. For as long as he can remember, Paul loved to sing and write poetry and music. He also had the goal of one day becoming a doctor. While reaching for his medical dreams during his college years, he started entering and winning talent competitions, one of which was the Youth Talent Showdown at the Calgary Exhibition and Stampede. Brandt credits these contests as events that altered the course of his life. Label executives began to take notice, and by the age of 21, Brandt had been signed to a seven-album deal with Warner/Reprise Records Nashville, alongside label-mates Faith Hill, Randy Travis, and more.
