Toronto, ON

Just packing up my things before I head out to the airport to fly West... Vancouver for a few days, then Victoria for Halloween. Have had some great days in Toronto.. work done, had fun, dances danced, food eaten, wine drank... good times. Lots to do before I resume recording upon my return! Bought a little 1960s plywood Capri parlour guitar to tote on the plane and play around with. It can come to the forest. Must keep writing....Onward Ho. Will report soon. xoxox

Happy Friday the 13th. I'm In Ottawa for the yearly Ontario Council of Folk Festivals conference... It's always such a good time with droves and droves of musical compadres I haven't seen in ages. Sleeping is usually not an option, but I'm not sure I'll survive that kind of behaviour this year. Have been crazy burning-the-candle lately working hard on new album plans and all related business. All I can seem to do is crawl into bed with the new Lemony Snicket book that came out today and Z z z z z z z z z z z z z.......

Sweethearts,

I am so very pleased to announce that I've officially begun the recording process for my new album ... Hooray!!!! I'll be working again with the amazing Ken Whiteley as producer at his Toronto studio. Currently we're recording four songs for funding/grant application purposes and will be proceeding with project completion later in the fall. Some new tracks will be posted for fun here on my website and on my Myspace page. I'll keep you posted. xo

Montréal, QC

In Montréal for a few days of delicious vacation. Am so so so happy to be here. Climbed the old clock tower at the port in Vieux-Montréal this eve (see photo above.) Had a bit of an adventure at the top when I ran into a strange man who was looking nervous, sweating and holding a suspicious briefcase... Made it out alive for the most delicious dinner date of my life at Restaurant Pierre du Calvet... seriously, seriously recommended.

Lunenburg, NS

I have been in Nova Scotia this past weekend at the glorious Lunenburg Folk Harbour Festival. I had THE most amazing time this weekend at what was indeed one of the best festivals I have ever attended. I have been so impressed by the people here, their true love for this music and their willingness to just get up and sing!! I participated in the best Sunday morning Folkfest gospel workshop I have ever witnessed and sang my little lungs out with the likes of Suzie Vinnick and the Marigolds, the Johnson Girls from NYC, the sweet croonin' Rose Cousins and so many more... needless to say, I'm a happy girl. Off to Halifax for a couple days, then adventuring to Montreal, oui oui, bien sure....xoxo
