Kip Calahan

NOW INCLUDES WESTERN MUSIC VIDEO OF WESTERN MUSIC ASSOC. SONG OF THE YEAR "WHAT COWBOY MEANS" AND "AL VALLE DE ANIMAS" ON DVD!!!! Shot exclusively on the ranch in the southwest corner of New Mexico.

Kip Calahan's involvements in the traditions of the west are as straightforward as it gets.

Kip lives on the vast, historical Gray Ranch in the far southwest corner of New Mexico.
Her husband Richard is following in his father's footsteps as foreman on the outfit. They've made their home on one of the most pristine, unspoiled ranches in the West.

Kip frequently cooks for the cowboys, rides and works cattle and joins in their conversations. She is attuned to the daily life on the ranch. . Her music reflects her admiration, respect and love for the life that she shares with her husband and their daughter, Kyli.

Whether she is writing about her home in the sprawling Animas Valley with her song, "Al Valle De Animas", or reflecting on the many cowboys that drift through her home, she writes with honesty, sincerity and a deep understanding of the "cowboy way". Her song "What Cowboy Means", a tribute to her late father-in-law, is a beautiful, straightforward and rousing testimonial to cowboys of yesteryear and cowboys of today.

This singing cowgirl has a clear strong voice with a range that enables her to do a wide variety of songs, both the ones that she writes and the ones written by the giants of the genre like Ian Tyson, Paul Zarzyski and Jean Prescott.

Kip was nominated for the 2002 American Western Artist Association Rising Star Award and winner of the Academy of Western Artists Female Vocalist of the Year 2003.

She has traveled widely, performed at dozens of fairs, festivals and cowboy gatherings and shared the stage with such artists as Alabama, The Judd's, Merle Haggard, Ian Tyson and Baxter Black.

What this all really adds up to is a very simple theme....... Kip Calahan cherishes the western way and is one of our very best singer/songwriters who is making sure that there is a great richness to our western heritage. As she wrote in her song of the Animas Valley, "In a land of extremes, cowboys live out their dreams," we can all dream along............

  • Cowboys,Cowgirls,Roundups&Rodeo's
    author: Barbara McDonald

    This was great, my husband built fence on the Gray Ranch in the late 1970's, the video brought tears to my eyes. Our oldest daughter was 2 at the time and she loved it when daddy "raced" the antelope. The music is wonderful!

  • Loved the CD! Great voice and great songs!
    author: Janet

    Cowboy music is the best and this CD is one of the best. I heard Rodeo Road on XM 13 Cowboy Gathering and had to have the CD. Kip has such a rich voice and really brings depth to these songs. I would recommend it to everyone who loves western music.

    Kip Calahan reminds me of singers like Patsy Cline-her voice and lyrics are full of emotion-I would recommend this one to anyone who likes western/ cowboy songs.
