Oh Prairie Sky, Oh Mountain Air!
I can't seem to get enough of Alberta.... I barely arrived home from my western summer escapades in late september before jumping on a plane to Edmonton.
Here I am, enjoying the beautiful crisp fall weather and looking forward to 2 weeks of solo shows from Edmonton to Lethbridge and many places in between.
Please go check out the shows page to see if I'll be in your town!
In the meantime, here's a picture of me trying to look cool in a corn field.
Back to the Boots
After a great run at the Winnipeg Fringe Festival performing in the musical, Hedwig and the Angry Inch with Toronto theatre company, Breathe Feel Love, I have retired my spandex and electric guitar for the remainder of the summer, put my skirt and cowboy boots back on and picked up my acoustic guitar.
I have to admit - I'm going to miss the lightning bolts, the glam rock, the makeup, and the leopard print. But it's nice to get back to my roots.
Starting this weekend in Carstairs and Edmonton, I'll be getting my folk back-on for the next couple weeks. Please join me if you're in any nearby towns!
Here's wishing everyone a warm summer full of adventure and madness!!
Monday is the new Funday
After two months away I am so happy to be back in my home here in Toronto. I had an amazing tour with Sean Pinchin and we successfully conquered the February blahs with folk music and cowboy boots.
Back home for a rest, I'm taking it easy on the touring, but you can find me here and there in the GTA as well as every monday night at Not My Dog in Toronto, with a slew of other wonderful local musicians and guests every week!
Check the shows page for details, and come say hello to the Ladies in Waiting, a.k.a. Les Catherinettes on a Monday night!
February Freedom Tour with Sean Pinchin!
Happy February, everybody!
We kicked off the coldest month of the year last night with the release of my awesome new video for "How Good You Are." The video was made possible by a grant from Videofact, and directed by the amazing Landon Ramirez, with flatline pictures and The Next Element. Look these guys up - they are doing lots of awesome stuff!!
Now I'm just finishing packing my bags -- nothing like keeping yourself busy to distract from the freezing cold. A foot of snow dropped last night in Toronto and Sean Pinchin and I are heading to North Bay to start our February Freedom Tour. It's gonna be a blast, you should join us!
Check the shows page for a date near your town, and keep yourselves warm and healthy.
In the meantime, check out the video (on the music page!)
Videos, Bikes and a cure for the February Blahs
Well!
Winter is serious this year. At least it is here in Saskatoon, where I've been for the last little while, working with my other love, an environmental organization called WAM (We Are Many).
We've been doing some very cool stuff, and I've had a blast staying in Saskatoon, but I'll be saying goodbye this weekend. For those of you out here in the prairies, you have two chances to come say bye -- I suggest you do both:
Saturday Jan 29th
9:00 p.m. @ Lydia's
with Massey and the Fergusons
Sunday Jan 30th
1:00 p.m. @ The Farmer's Market
Following the 2nd Annual IceCycle!!
It will be sad to say farewell to Saskatoon, but I'm so excited to go back to Toronto and see my friends.
Last summer I was fortunate enough to get a grant from Videofact for a music video, thanks to the help of Flatline Pictures and The Next Element. These guys, under the direction of Landon Ramirez, made me an awesome video for "How Good You Are" from Mayflower. We're going to release this at the Gladstone Hotel as soon as I get home. Please come and celebrate with us! There will be lots of live music and two screenings of the video:
Tuesday Feb 1st
8:00 p.m. at the Gladstone Hotel (Melody Bar)
with James Clark
and Dirt Farmer
That's it for now! Stay tuned in the next few days... Sean Pinchin and I are making our way West from Toronto to B.C. this February to fight the Winter Blues. I'll be posting the details shortly!!
In the mean time, stay warm and see you soon.
