I’m happy to be playing a show at the Atlantic Paddle Symposium, Friday May 11th. I’ll be mixing the music with some preview episodes of Paddle To The Ocean. This is going to be a special show, with Ian Bent helping me out on Keys & vocals. See you on the water!

Also – Steve Gates is now on tour in the US & Canada. He’s coming to your town…

Ever wonder why ribbons & bracelets don’t actually address the root cause?  Check out this article by Chris Benjamin.

Tim Bosquet ain’t no slouch either.

I’m playing some stand-up bass for Mr. Brownrigg & Mr. Legere tomorrow evening at The Bus Stop Theatre (8:30pm). Mel Stone is going to sing sweet harmonies. It truly is good friday.

In conjunction with Canada Water Week, I’ll be doing a talk about Paddle To The Ocean on Tuesday March 20th at Rouge’s Roost (7pm).

Also – congrats to Kelsey Thompson for winning at the Water Walker Film Festival for his documentary ‘Locals Only’.

I received a bit of great news last night. The video we made for ‘So Fine‘ won Best Amateur/Short Paddling Film at the Reel Paddling Film Festival. This is great encouragement for us to keep working on the documentary for Paddle To The Ocean.

I’d like to say a HUGE thanks to Aram & Kelsey for making this video happen. We had a lot of fun making it! Also- if you read those credits at the end, I had a lot of friends helping out as well.

I’m going to New Brunswick for some shows with Acres & Acres. Ian’s having a baby, so I’m his stunt double.

These brilliant fellows have generously contributed lots of music to Paddle To The Ocean, and Locals Only. I’m really happy to be playing bass for them.

I hope it still looks like this in NB:

Kelsey and I are working away on the Paddle To The Ocean documentary. Fortunately Ian Bent & Kris Pope have agreed to work on the soundtrack.

It’s great having such talented friends!

I caught Mr. Gates’ showcase at NS Music Week. The band is hot folks!  Do not miss this show. (Sat. Nov 12th @ 1313 Hollis).

Also, Kelsey just posted a ‘highlights‘ reel:
