“I’ll be playing with my band (no photo of us yet!), they are Haligonians Jon MacIsaac (Kilmore, Earth Altar The Infinite Possibility) and Devin Shael Fox (Matt Steele) and keyboard player Robert Sherwood formerly of the 90s band Fiction. He will be flying in from Massachusetts for the gig. We formed at the beginning of the year and after an initial creative burst recorded our debut album on the last day the legendary Halifax studio Sonic Temple was open, recording the essentials of the album, titled Walk Right Through, in a single day.

The feeling people get from my music is always the same – whether the genre is the intimate indie of the current incarnation, or the medicine pop or late night singer-songwriter vibes of other albums, generally a feeling of well-being; uplifting, exuberant, and joyful emotions are the kind of thing that you might expect – heart-opening is a word people use. People cry. People dance. People laugh at the absurd stream of consciousness rambles between songs and people sing along, sometimes when they’ve never even heard the song before. I haven’t played the Carleton for a while but it used to be my regular place to play when I lived in Halifax. I look forward to seeing some old faces in the crowd if they decide to come out.”
