Michael Bernard Fitzgerald is certainly a jack of all trades.

The Calgary-born singer-songwriter will be featured at Algonquin College Jan. 13.

After winning several songwriting awards in Calgary, he has become a prominent member of Canada’s West Coast music scene, touring extensively through BC, Alberta and Saskatchewan.

He speaks highly of his hometown as a catalyst for Canadian content. “In Alberta, there have been cool acts like Tegan and Sara and Feist,” said Fitzgerald of his native scene. “Calgary has some really cool exports.”
