Dig Me A Grave

So far this year feels like it’s flying by. I can’t believe it’s almost April! Anyway, I thought I’d take a few minutes to share a new song. The only people who will have heard it before are those who were at Raw Sugar earlier this month. Enjoy!

Super Bowl XLVII

Super Bowl Sunday!!
I don’t know about the rest of you, but in my family the Super Bowl is a big deal. My father, brother and I usually get together with rounds of wings, nachos, homemade burgers, homemade fries and basically anything else that can help us pack on a few pounds in one afternoon. On this particular Sunday I find myself in a different city and won’t be able to join them. Nevertheless, I will don my Ravens jersey proudly and yell at a television knowing my family is doing the same back home.

GO RAVENS!

Merry Christmas

Hey all, I just wanted to take a moment and wish everyone out there a Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah and a Joyous Kwanza! I’ll be spending the next couple days visiting friends and family and I hope all of you are surrounded by loved ones as well. In the spirit of the holidays, here’s a quick cover of Blue Christmas. It’s the first time I’ve ever tried doing a YouTube video via my phone. I think it worked our alright.

Late Night Video Shoot

Stu and I went down to the locks by the Ottawa River with Craig from Partus Films. We seriously underestimated the evening weather! After losing one of the mics to the cold, we pulled together long enough to get through one take of Follow Your Heart.

Thankfully no instruments were harmed during the making of this video and no irreparable damage was done to anyone’s hands. Hope you enjoy!

Daytime Ottawa

For those of you who missed us on Daytime Ottawa last week, and for those of you who want to see it again, it’s now online!

I was joined by my good friends Stuart Rutherford on resonator and Brent Weatherall on bass. Thanks again to the crew over at Rogers for making us feel right at home.

We’re Live!
