Claudia Nygaard

This is the official YouTube Channel for Claudia Nygaard, a winner of numerous awards including the Kerrville Folk Festival and Tumbleweed Music Festival songwriting competitions. Her recent release "Lucky Girl" rose to #5 on the Folk DJ chart, and her previous CD “Let The Storm Roll In” rose to #1 on the Cashbox Roots Country Chart. Songs from both albums are featured on this channel.

As evidenced in her videos, Nygaard’s captivating storytelling overflows from her songwriting into her live performance. With songs that move from heartfelt to humorous and from scrappy to sensual, she slices into stories like a surgeon with a fish knife – scraping off scales and pulling back the flesh to expose the bones. Her fearless lack of self censorship exposes a rare vulnerability and tenderness one moment, then a quick wit and an outlandish, irreverant sense of humor the next.
