Hello, Folks.
Well the election is behind us and I must say I really enjoyed running for the Green Party. We had a fine slate of candidates here in P.E.I. and had the second highest provincial popular vote for the Greens, coming in just behind B.C. People were very kind and respectful at the doors and I didn’t even encounter any mean dogs. I’ve decided to try and keep more active on political issues and my new album certainly reflects my […]

If you haven’t had time to order a copy you are welcome to now through Bandcamp.
The video for “I Remember Canada” is being viewed by over 1000 people […]

Friday night is ‘Let Them Eat Cake,’ our annual fundraiser for Rock Barra Artist Retreat at The Haviland Club in Charlottetown. We have a very exciting season planned for the retreat. Go to […]
Hi, Folks.

We were out on tour for most of February. My son Patrick and I had two amazing shows at The Aliz Gooldin Theatre in Victoria as guests with the 300 piece Getting Higher Choir. It was one of my favourite gigs ever! October Browne and I […]
