August has done us solid in central Canada. Lots of sunshine and warm nights. To end it up I crossed the southern part of the province to play with The Rizdales at their cd release show in their hometown of London. And a nice end of summer wedding up on Georgian Bay where my friend Sarah and I sang The Land of Milk and Honey as part of the ceremony. Currently recording a version of White Christmas for the food bank charity cd. My nieghbour thinks it is odd that I am blaring holiday music mid summer but that is how we roll these days in Adolphustown. I will be keeping the mics plugged in to tackle my new recording project. I am so excited as I have the honour and thrill of being chosen (over so many other skilled producers!) to record a wonderful, local songwriter who has a veritable plethora of brilliant songs. It is actually me, but the facts are the same and we are not going to disappoint me. Or you, either... |

Hello summer! Wha happened? Seems like I just got back from tour but it has been 5 weeks of summer fun, mostly writing and picking on the banjo out in the country. Played some fun weekend shows and have started the recording process but mostly swimming, biking, and sipping cool bevies by the water whenever possible. Got some sun on my scottish canadian hide and am looking forward to another month of much the same. We play a local festival in Verona this weekend and then head to p.e.i. for some secret adventure involving recording, beaches and lobster (x beer ÷ barbecue!). The end of summer I will be joining my favourite Canadian husband & wife band, The Rizdales for a couple big shows to celebrate their cd release. I think I will get a haircut and a clean shave... |

Holy moly what an epic journey it has been! Our last shows in Colorado were super fun as we added some of Jacks old buddies onto the bill and got to stay with very wonderful folks at their lovely homes. Boulder is really a nice town and the Boulder Theater where we played is one of those grand old venues. Winding down at Gibbs ranch house for the last two days was perfect. Roosters and chickens poked around in the yard and the horses grazed in the back forty. Some great fans came out too as I seem to have a few die hards scattered about America. Playing music with Jack & Daria Grace and Bruce Martin is a real treat and I cannot wait to show them off at this years Elphin Roots Fest (June 26). As I write this I am sitting in Buffalo after a crazy day of flying. I am just a bus, a train and a car ride from home sweet home. Five weeks away can only mean that my lawn is a wild field and the one house plant I have managed to keep alive all these years is likely dead. But hey, its summer and I am going swimming!!!! |
