Hey everyone! Once again, falling behind on the updates. I promise to be better in the coming months with all the exciting events in the near future. Here’s a quick note on what I’ve been up to.

I’ve spent the better half of 2011 so far in Toronto working with A-list Canadian musicians, recently finishing recording my new album with award-winning producer Hawksley Workman! Hawksley has been been one of my favorite artists for years and it was an surreal experience making the record with him. Mixing will be completed by the end of April and the record it set to be released in September. Keep an eye out for updates in the coming weeks and months! Very, very excited for you all to hear this !!

Next week, I will be heading with the band to this year’s East Coast Music Awards in Charlottetown, PEI. We are playing two showcases this year, both on Thursday, April 14th. The first is at 11 PM at the Alibi Lounge, with our very own Zach MacLean’s band Young River ! Also on the bill are Ron Neilsen and Matthew Hornell and the Diamond Minds. Very excited for this this, if you haven’t seen Young River play yet, hurry up before they are the biggest band in the country. Word.

Our second set of the evening will be at 1 AM (technically Friday morning) at Murphy’s Community Centre for the MIAfest stage. Very honored to be sharing the stage with so many great East Coast artists ! Thanks to Music Nova Scotia for giving us the slot. Stoked to get back on stage and share all of these new songs with everyone.

Hope everyone is enjoying the (slightly) warmer weather! Summer shows to be announced soon. ‘Member summer? Yeah that was sweet.

O, and recently became (slightly) obsessed with Twitter after having an account for the past few years. Follow me and I’ll follow you back !

C U SOON !!
