Hilary's Ride/Mt. Engadine....

Thu, 01 Sep 2011 00:00:00 -0700

I think I had the best weekend ever last weekend!
Played at the Blue Chair in support of Hillary's Ride with so many GREAT players. Thank you Bill and Bettyjo Werthmann for being the glue in our music community! And thanks to Chris and Shari at Mt. Engadine for ALL you do! We are honored guests at the lodge! Everything about it is top drawer, otherworldly. Was a beautiful night of song and food and friends.

Dry Island....

Thu, 25 Aug 2011 00:00:00 -0700

Just wanted to make mention of an event that i really love...my uncle invites me to sing at his painter's retreat at the campfire every year in Dry Island Buffalo Jump. Was there yesterday with all the great people in his workshop. He is an incredible painter- Jim Davies- and he attracts all these wonderful people, and I am so blessed to be part of it. Dry Island is the coolest place. So many years ago now, we filmed the CBC Alberta Bound segment there, and everytime i drive there i am astounded by the beauty.

Want to send special blessings to Maureen and Annie....and thanks to everyone who connected and told me their stories about their journey....

One love......

My Bad....

January? January? Really? That's the last entry I made? You all better start hassling me about this! LOL.

I have no internet at home, and my work day is usually so busy i don't get here. How's that for an excuse?

I have a couple of things cookin that I am SO excited about. Will keep you posted. Promise.

Hoping that all you journeying souls are helping one another along the way. That you are finding beauty in this loooooooong winter(if you are in Alberta) Blesings to the souls who are re-building on the other side of the world. Don't forget, your simple prayer and meditation on their healing is POWERFUL. Take 5 minutes everyday to send healing and love to Japan. To one another. I send my blessings to you now.

one love

middle of the freeze...

Fri, 10 Dec 2010 00:00:00 -0800

well...the days are shorter and colder and darker....sound like fodder for songwriting? Hah!!!
Trying to keep up on my vitamin D intake. How is everyone doing out there? I am excited to be playing a gig on New Years Eve this year in Edmonton to raise money for the food bank. There is a nice line up of musicians...and a great cause. Will post the info on my dates page.
Just mostly wanted to say hello...we're coming up to "that time" of the year. One of my least favorite. I know I know! I'm working on a song about it...maybe she'll be ready by NYE. See you there?

The Fall...

Sat, 23 Oct 2010 00:00:00 -0700

Is upon us...with winter close on her heels...brrrr..can feel the chill in the air. Lots going on, but just wanted to touch base and say hello. Wanted to address Michael's question about Waiting for Beautiful. I will re-record it someday...and yes, there are publication issues, but not with JOA. I just need to completely re do it...as the version that was made is unavailable. And it would be grand to make a new record every two years....but they are financed by myself personally, and until the loan is paid off...there is no record forthcoming. So...we Wait...for Beautiful.
Thanks to everyone who has bought a record and supported live music and independant artists like me! We couldn't do it without you.
Blessings all
