Autumn-Winter News

Hi to all!

I'm very happy to be sending this autumn/winter newsletter to you.

Since Ontario's re-opening I've had the good fortune to be working with some fine musicians on some pretty fantastic projects.

 

The blessings continue with some fall dates worth mentioning!

 

But first - check out my dear friend Molly Johnson's latest offering...

Fans have been begging Molly to make a Christmas record for a long time, and well... not only is the new record "It's A Snow Globe World" being released on October 29th, but also the music will have its debut at the newly reimagined Massey Hall on December 17th!!
