Cort Delano raised in Claresholm Alberta, began traveling the world to seek his purpose in life, laboured in the oil-patch, the trades and attended college, but it wasn’t until he returned home and picked up his Father’s guitar, that had always been there, that he found his destiny. Cort Delano is a young Ian Tyson brought into the 21st century with a twist of Tom Russell. Like Ian Tyson And Tom Russell, I believe this is what Cort Delano is on this earth to do; What Tom calls “ The Minstrel Trade”.
