Great times this summer touring coast coast to coast! First with The Opposite of Everything playing Sudbury Northern Lights Festival Boréal, Newfoundland Sound Symposium, MusicWestPort, and the Vancouver Folk Festival. (Massive thanks to all the fests for such a great time, and to the Canada Council for the arts for helping us get there!
Summer continued with some solo shows premiering new material where I’ve been experimenting with {{looping throat singing falsetto through guitar pedals, and of course, triphonic fiddle- videos to come soon!}} at Artswells Festival, folkWEST in Victoria and the Cultura festival in Toronto.
Check out this video by Michael Berz from a spontaneous Vancouver House Concert with Robin Layne, Sam Davidson, and Simon Nyberg!
Thanks to the wonderful festivals, new friends and fans who made these shows happen! Lastly, thanks to the amazing musicians in my westcoast pickup bands: Swedish guitar virtuoso Simon Nyberg, Todd Bifford who drums for Maria in the Shower, triumphant trumpet troubadour Shelder Footz, and my oldest pal on the low end, the mighty Ian Olmstead. Nothing like summer folk festivals in this beautiful mad country of ours, and I’m already looking forward to the next!
