Chris Stringer is invaluable to music in Canada, and an astoundingly generous individual.
Invaluable in being one of the owner/operators as Union Sound Company, facilitating the making of some very very good records with kindness, humour, and hospitality. It isn’t easy to be running a studio in 2022, but Chris does a good job of making it seem that way.
…Astoundingly generous in that he’s agreed to give us all of his guitars in exchange for saying nice things about him online. Thanks, Chris!

You can really hear Chris' space in a few songs in particular on Heirlooms - the first and last tracks, most of all. If you live near Guelph, feel free to join us for our little album listening party at Bookshelf Cinema at 3pm on Saturday. You'll get to hear the album before it's released, in the company of some of the folks that made it happen, and watch a sneak-peek of a couple of the music videos we have completed so far. Bring a mask, a mug, and some cash for the concession & pwyc entry!

I watched this film as a kid with my family, it was one of those ones we picked at random at Blockbuster and boy am I happy we did.
