This is a little late, but I would like to thank-you all for your support this past year. Without you buying CDs, booking house concerts, coming to gigs, getting the word out and just giving me a thumbs up now and then, what would be the reason to continue? I am so glad that I have you and that sometimes you are just as excited as I am to hear the next new song. Thank-you so much.
Next week I head back into the studio with Dave Draves. We are working on a second album and I am curious to see how it will turn out. In December we recorded "48 Foot Shadow" which is a song that I wrote for Jamie F to sing, but that I ended up recording. (JF can record it on his next album.) Dave and I thought to just demo it for now, but somehow there was a bit of magic in the air that day, so we build a whole song - quirky, but really cool.
Tonight I am donating a house concert to a cycling fundraiser silent auction. I had told myself that I would not donate any more house concerts, but one of the organizers, Chris Reid convinced me to donate one, as did my good friend Sheri Jay. So, I will at least donate this one as the money goes to supporting one of my favourite sports.
As for gigging, mark your calendars for March 13. I have tentatively booked that date at the Kaffe 1870, but my regular bass player is booked that weekend. So, I have to either rebook or wangle someone else. In any event, please put this date into your calendars. It's not often that I get to play with a full band and I am pretty excited.
That is all for now. See you soon
