Hey!
Mid-February, Brian James and I will be flying over to Vancouver to record with award winning producer, Roy Salmond. We’re really excited and the same as the last album - Brian will be co-producing. We can’t wait to get out there and have been writing like mad-feins.
If you’re interested in some more info on Roy - you can read about him here: http://www.roysalmond.com/pgs/personnel.html

Hey all.
Thought I’d update you on the current goings on here….
Well, I have taken a part-time job at Starbucks to help out around this festive season, and while I don’t have many shows this month (due to the Christmas season and the fact that I don’t know any christmas songs….)
Man - I feel too old to learn all this stuff at Starbucks…like how many espresso shots go into a Venti cup, and how many go into a Venti Americano….agh. Crazy. It’s fun though - and I think if I have to have a REAL job (not a job that involves lazing around and writing songs, traveling and playing shows)(which, don’t get me wrong, IS real work!) but I think Starbucks is a great fit. You can’t be grumpy and work there….that’s for sure….It’s all about the customer there….I remember this job I had where I worked in a dark warehouse with no windows and typed up work orders all day, and I needed one of those mugs that said “Don’t talk to me…I hate conversation” or something, cause I was UNHAPPY. So - atleast I can be happy. I also find the people that order their “really special” drinks really interesting…..like where is the first time they ever tried a drink with that many modifications? There are a LOT of people out there with a LOT of different tastes…..Its great.
Well, we had a fundraiser not too long ago - and I wanted to thank everyone that came out for the evening, and everyone that was generous enough to donate - Thank you SO much - you are VERY appreciated….more than you will ever know! (Thanks also to Steve Bell and Dave Zyglinski and the other folks down at signpost music for making it all happen - man - you guys are AMAZING! (Sidenote - It’s really crazy b/c I grew up listening to Steve Bell, and LOVING his music, and dreaming about meeting him and even just TALKING about music with him, and now….here I am…..sitting at his desk…stealing his internet. crazy how life takes unexpected turns. haha.)
Mid-February, Brian James and I will be flying to Vancouver to record a few songs with Roy Salmond (an award winning producer) and head of Whitewater productions in Surrey, BC.
We are REALLY excited to go and get working on it - and see what comes of it - if it all goes well, we’ll be finishing up the album in spring and hoping to get it back from press for a fall tour! How exciting!!
I’m trying to write like mad right now - a friend of Brent’s and mine is staying at our house right now - his name is Matt Epp, (he’s an AMAZING musician - check him out! www.myspace.com/mattepp )and he LOVES writing - so this has been very beneficial to me trying to finish these songs - we can sit around and jam and write, and sing…..good times are had.
well, - I hope all ya’ll are doin’ well - I have a gig out in Niverville tonight that I have to prepare for - but take care and keep in touch - or keep reading!!
