I love podcasts. I love songwriting. I love songwriting podcasts! So it was really cool to be interviewed on Steve Robb’s podcast Song Creating.

We talk about all sorts of geeky songwriting stuff, and about my journey as a musician, all the way back to when I first started writing songs in high school. And then we dissect the song Ghost Town from Hurricane Coming in great detail.

Before I head to Vancouver to celebrate Hurricane Coming at the Canadian Folk Music Awards, I’m swinging by my hometown of Ottawa to play a concert in the “Spirit of Rasputin’s” series. It’s fitting that this homecoming show is part of this particular series, since the original Rasputin’s Folk Cafe was a second home to me when I was in high school, and I even worked there as a waitress for a while! It’s lovely to see the community keeping its spirit alive and continuing to present folk music in a listening room setting in the city.

I’ll be bringing along Sarah Hiltz to accompany me for this 2:00pm show on Sunday, March 19 at the Westboro Masonic Hall. Normalize matinee shows! Details on the GIGS page or at rasputins.org.
