May 20, 2004
London, Ontario

Had the most incredible gig last night at the London Music Club -a fabulous new venue in town that I am so psyched about! Played with my good pal Sam Masich and very special guest Jane Siberry to a house of oh-so appreciative and wonderful folks. Am still gliding down from the glory... Other than that me myself and I have been getting gots of exercise running about the beautiful forests as well as spending lotsa time at the computer working hard on businessy stuff. I've been spending most of my nights painting painting painting (as in on canvas- not walls) whilst listening to high-quality late night talk radio. Must keep abreast of important worldly affairs, says I. 

Hi-ho Hi-ho, now back to work I go...

Come see Kristin and Sam Masich at the London Music Club
Wednesday May 19!

Toronto, ON

Happy Happy May Day. How I love this day! Must be 'cause I'm such a May baby ( I get to turn 29 on the 10th....) Am in Toronto with my dear friends Kt, Missy and Melissa celebrating the day with honey mead and possible excursions out-on-the-town. So long as I get to dress up- I don't care. Tomorrow I head back to London to prepare for a month of house and poodle-sitting while my parents are gallivanting about Italy. Lucky them. I'll wash the dishes take out the garbage and mow the lawn. My time has come.

will report soon,
Lady K

Winnipeg, MB

Have been hangin' in the Peg for a couple days with my good pal Trevor Mills. Thank the gods for Winnipeg- a grand oasis of glorious folks (and such great musicians!) smack dab in the middle of the long Canadian nowhere-ness... A haven for the girl that's been driving and driving for days... about to go truly and officially insane. Heading into the Ontario northlands for many days of driving yet.... dreaming of my soft bed at the end of the rainbow.

Sudbury, ON

After a big lonnnng drive 'cross my home and native land I am settled for a few days in the Big Nickel. Have been kickin' it up with my darling Darlene and dear pal Carrie who has been gracious enough to house this travelling wayfaring songstress... The time here has been extremely creatively productive and Dar and I have been practicing our sword and hoop dance (among other performatory extravaganzas...) And have had many a video and photo shoot to boot. Filmmaker Peter Zwarich took some insane footage of me doin' my sword thang and edited it together with some footage from last night's gig at the Townehouse. It's worth checking out, man. Click on the link below... (Don't forget to download and updated version of Quicktime first.. or it won't work!) As well, masterful Sudbury photographer David Wiewel was so kind as to snap a ton of mind blowing images of all the action. You'll notice his photos all over this page, but click on the links to see more...

Can't believe I'm finally back in Ontario... It's been 22,000 kms of true glory.

Thanks Universe for protecting me all the way!

Welcome home Sweetyland.

Edmonton, AB

I love Edmonton. Have already been here for a week and I'm just not ready to leave yet! Rolled into town on March 27th to play a house concert at Bill Bourne's place. Bill and his partner Tanja just moved into a gorgeous house near downtown Edmonton they're calling it"The Beach House" and are beginning a house concert series there. Yay for that! So I got to come be the inaugural house concert performer for what ended up also being their housewarming party- and Bill's 50th birthday party! Felt so lucky to be a part. Since then I've had some great gigs with Bill around and about not to mention the Junos were in town this weekend so there have been much festivities pertaining to that. I had a Junofest gig on Friday night that will go down in history as one of the most memorable gigs of my life EVER. The Northern Lights Folk Club sponsored two nights of Junofest performances at The Masonic Temple and I got to play in the Masonic Inner Lodge Room. There was the big checker board floor with the star in the middle and the big thrones and everything. I mean, how many times in her life does a girl get to perform in an inner sanctum, man? And it sounded sooo beautiful. Counting my blessings as we speaketh... This tour has really been the best ever. And that's saying a lot. And more adventures yet to come! talk soon...

love,
Lady K

Victoria, BC

Finally it's Spring! weeeeeee! Ohhh how Victoria always feels like coming home. I've been a bit delinquent at updating my adventures of late for a couple reasons. Firstly, California was such a blast.... On my. And I was very distracted by inordinate amounts of Fun. Folk Alliance was truly unbelievable this year and the Little Red Hen room rocked the house!! Thanks so much to everyone who participated. After the conference I headed up to LA with pals Po' Girl and Chris Brown & Kate Fenner for yet another adventure in the City of Angels. Apparently I had more fun that my wee body could handle as I ended up coming down with a super nasty case of strep throat and had to find myself an emergency clinic fast.... Ended up passed out in a Motel 6 in Santa Barbara county for five days on heavy doses of antibiotics for my throat and an ear infection watching nothin' but X Files reruns. La Pauvre K.

But all is oh-so well now and I'm so glad to be back on my beloved Vancouver Island. Time for resting and recuperating and frolicking about the beautiful forests... 

There's no place like home.

Hollywood, CA

Holeeee Hollywood girl! I'm so incredibly excited as this is my very first ever trip ever to tinselly-town! Got myself a nice Hollywood sleazy motel and am heading out for some serious sight-seeing. Wanna go check out the Foulcault Pendulum at the Griffith Observatory and then hit Beverly Hills for some very important shoe shopping. Not to mention I could really use a manicure, pedicure and maybe even a massage.... go team decadence!
