Jess Moskaluke’s latest cross-Canada tour has entered familiar territory.
The Saskatchewan-born country singer is in the midst of a 35-date headlining tour that commenced last month in B.C. and rolls through the Casino Regina Show Lounge on Saturday night, where Moskaluke has performed on multiple occasions.
Regina is one of eight Saskatchewan stops, including two sold-out shows in her hometown of Langenburg, before continuing eastward through Manitoba, Ontario and the Maritimes.
1. Life For Me Tour
Moskaluke, joined by special guest Mitch Zorn, is one of the biggest stars on the Saskatchewan music scene. She’s won multiple Canadian Country Music Awards, including female artist of the year (three times), while also picking up a Juno for country album of the year (Kiss Me Quiet).
Moskaluke is the first homegrown female country artist since Shania Twain to achieve Canadian platinum single status (Cheap Wine and Cigarettes). She also earned Canadian gold certifications for Take Me Home, Kiss Me Quiet, Knock Off, and her first No. 1 hit, Country Girls.
“Internationally celebrated artist Jess Moskaluke continues to break barriers in country music with her powerful voice, pop-infused hooks, and sonic versatility,” says an online preview. “Her new single, Life For Me, offers a first glimpse into her forthcoming new music — elevated, personal, joyful, and full of spirited authenticity — marking an exciting new chapter in her career.”

She “captivates” audiences with her “rich, soulful voice,” says an online preview. “Weaving emotion into every note, she brings healing and connection through song. A shining star in Canada’s music scene, she continues to inspire and uplift with her powerful storytelling.”
