Ringing in October in Newfoundland

Seems like September flew by as I drove around eastern Ontario and then hopped a train to Nova Scotia. I was graced with beautiful weather all through that province and took in these blazing fall colours:

The Deep Roots Music Festival in Wolfville was a dream come true. It was a honour to share the festival stages with so many talented musicians. Even the local newspapers agreed that it was one of the best fests yet.
I’m in St. John’s, Newfoundland right now, still waking up after a sweet show at the Ship last night. I have three more shows in Newfoundland before I head back to Toronto. Tune in to On the Go on CBC Radio this afternoon to hear me chat about them with Ted Blades.

Leaves turning, wheels turning

The fall colours are starting to sweep through eastern Ontario. I’m in my hometown of Ottawa, getting ready for the big CD release show tomorrow at Raw Sugar. Here’s Arthur McGregor, proprietor of the greatest music store on earth, the Ottawa Folklore Centre, showing off the poster for the show.

Thanks to Canada’s longest-running folk music radio program, Canadian Spaces, for having me on the show last Saturday morning. I spent many Saturday mornings tuning in to Canadian Spaces when I lived in Ottawa. On Thursday morning, I’ll be on CKCU’s Special Blend around 9:00AM and on Friday afternoon, tune in to Juice FM in Kemptville to hear me and Kristine St. Pierre talk about our show at The Branch.

Festival season isn’t over yet! I’m looking forward to playing at the Deep Roots Music Festival in Wolfville, Nova Scotia at the end of the month, along with more shows in Nova Scotia and Newfoundland.
