Home is where the art is for Rae Spoon

Leave home. Come home. Love home. Loathe home.

It is a strange, circular Seussian relationship that Rae Spoon has with Calgary, a city that the musician grew up in, abandoned and now returns to on a regular, sometimes enjoyable, often beneficial, yet still at times fractured frequency.

For example, the now Montreal-based transgendered performer — who wishes to be referred to in the increasingly common manner by the plural pronoun form — is returning home again Tuesday for an all-ages show at Central United Church, which should, if past dates are anything to go by, find an appreciative if not enraptured audience.
