Greetings lovelies. I am now officially HOME after a long bout of here-there-and-everywhereness. I have lots and lots of things I wanna to do here so I am forcing myself into some brand of winter hibernation for a while. Gonna practice with the clawhammer banjo instructional videotapes and start searching out for some Flamenco guitar lessons!!! (Anyone know a supremely divine teacher?) Also gonna finish up the elaborate website Photo Gallery experience and have all links up and running ASAP. Been adding lots of other things to the website as well and now you can BUY MY NEW CD ONLINE! Wahoooo! For your glorious shopping pleasure you can now purchase my new CD "ROOT, HEART & CROWN" in either Canadian or American funds with you credit card on an extraordinarily secure online server. Go Team!

Hello strange and beautiful world,

It has been such a busy past month. I've been recording and writing and housesitting and businessing and running through the forests with Raven the dog. I am now officially on Christmas vacation (which means it's time to shop and clean and organize and sew and cook and label all my endless amounts of Remington Steele videotapes (...yes i have a small 1980's detective drama problem.) I will be in Ontario until the new year at which point I am heading south south south. Going back to Virginia for a spell and then onward to North Carolina, Georgia and Florida. I'm gonna hit Jacksonville for this year's International Folk Alliance conference. Yay Folk Alliance and all my friends I haven't seen in a year and total overwhelming sensory overload- hooray! And hey, any good reason to slip south in February is so totally welcomed. I am looking very much forward to Spanish moss and snapping turtles and warmer-than-here-ness, but I think I might forgo the whole Florida Epcot experience this time. (But, I must admit the Norway Viking boat log ride with flashing trolls was officially extremely fun.) Come the new year I will for sure be playing lots more gigs. I've also got some radio and television plans so I will keep you all posted!. Until then I will be stewing in my artist's shell and working hard on finishing writing for my new album "Root, Heart & Crown." I will be recording sometime in the spring and then hitting the road to sing and play my brains out in every little corner of the continent... so watch out.
