It’s out today!! Aujourd’hui! Everyone grab your downloadable Bandcamp copies or happily stream away this brand new rendition of “La Vie en Rose” at the links below. I’m so so excited! This orchestral album has been a long time in the making between long arranging nights with Anders Azzopardi , and so much editing from Joel Visentin who tried to simulate a world with isolated recording booths. This is the first track off the upcoming album with more to come, but we wanted to make sure your Valentine’s Day weekend and Joel’s birthday (today) were as romantic as possible. Please let me know what you think! I really love this one! And as always, big thanks to Ontario Arts Council, Toronto Arts Council ,Balancing Act Canada for your support.

Hello Facebook friends! Just wanted to warn you that I'm slowly rolling out show announcements for the rest of 2025 and 2026 starting with some dates in Alaska this November. I'll be playing piano/guitar duos with the lovely and talented Tom Fleming, AND doing three improvised songwriting shows with my dear friends at Alaska's Parlor In The Round. These guys are putting a lot of trust in me, especially since this past September, I found out I have a mysterious tumour inside my spine and can no longer use two of the fingers on my right hand. I guess the thing I'm trying to say is, keep your eyes peeled for these show announcements and the giant bag of new music I'm gearing up to release. I might be taking some time off for a while and before that happens, I want to share every note with you guys that I can possibly can.
