Well, last Thursday night, I was back in the studio - Little Bullhorn Productions, in Ottawa, ON. I went in to demo a song called "Lament of the Caribou". I wrote this song a few months back at a songwriting class taught by Ian Tamblyn. Ian had us write something from a perspective outside of ourselves. I chose that of a caribou. The lyrics speak to how the landscape has changed for the caribou, and how large projects have caused their numbers to decrease. We had 4 hours to demo this song and the end result was better than I ever dreamed. Dave Draves is a genius! The various guitars sound are hypnotic sounding. One of them sounds almost like a harpsichord. The drum and bass sound like what I imagine a caribou herd migrating to sound like. I must have listened to the song 80 times so far. I will likely post the song on here in the next few months. In the meantime, I encourage you to listen to my current CD - I still have lots of those to sell. You can purchase one through CDBaby on this site, or by contacting me. You can also purchase an on-line version.
Also, tonight I am playing at a fundraiser for the Steven's women's and men's cycling teams as well as for the velodrome project. I have offered up a house concert to their silent auction.
Keep in touch, and see you soon!
