Canada Post’s latest stamp
This booklet of 6 PermanentTM domestic rate stamps celebrates the life and work of Salome Bey, known as Canada’s “first lady of the blues.”
The Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter was an inspiration and mentor for many young Black artists throughout her celebrated career. She is an honorary member of the Order of Canada.
The stamp features an illustration by David Belliveau of Salome during her performing years. It’s based on a photo by Doug Griffin.
Born in New Jersey, Salome began her musical career with her brother and sister. Billed as Andy and the Bey Sisters, the siblings toured Europe and North America. In 1964, Salome moved to Toronto, where her popularity on the jazz club circuit earned her the moniker Canada’s “first lady of the blues.”
Salome also saw success on the stage. She appeared in the Broadway musical Your Arms Too Short to Box with God, which earned her and other performers a Grammy nomination for their work on the cast album.
A member of the Canadian charity Artists Against Racism, Salome created many opportunities for Black performers. In 1996, she received the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Achievement Award
