Is it too early to talk about Christmas? (Yes probably) but, it is always a good time to talk about banjo lessons!
I’ve got vouchers available for lessons online and in person! Get em for your loved ones, get em for your neighbour, get em for yourself!
Send me a message or email and we can chat!
Surrounded by boxes and all my belongings. Taking a break from packing to work on some tracks, mainly because we haven't done them in a while.
This is the ending of an untitled tune... suggestions welcome.
I don’t think you could count the amount of hours I spent in the Cameron House in Toronto, between perform and watching, drinking and hanging out.
I can believe I am coming back to play my favourite venue!
If you are in come hang for an early one, or help out by giving a share!
Hey pals! I've got a number of Ontario shows coming up, and I'd love to see ya if I'm in a town near you!
Bringing my Welsh bluegrass band over for the first time!
Toronto, Kitchener, Ottawa, St.Catharines, Parry Sound, Sudbury, London
Jamming with the North Carolina Cicadas!
Bit of Welsh walking before flying on outta here.
This old case is ready for another journey!
ST.CATHARINES! Trying to determine how long it's been since I've played in my home town.... and the answer is a long time!
But, bringing Taff Rapids for some pickin! It would be great to see ya there for a nice afternoon gig!
Off to and then a little run of Ontario in a week!
Would mean a lot if you found yourself at one of our shows!
Hey! I'll be at one of my old haunts soon! Would love to see ya!
The fellas and I have been doing a barn burning rendition of of the Welsh Trad "Dacw Nghariad" so I'm messing around with some clicky clicky improvised bits to try in there.
I think I've perfected my little fly out fuction and no fun board.... until I want a new pedal.
s got me covered with compression, EQ an my DI
MXR noise gate for those nasty noises (hopefully cured by a new pick up tho!)
And with a signal blender so I can either run a clip on mic and pick up, or blend an effects board.
NERD.
Couple weeks here at home, then off to North Carolina and Ontario for some gigging.
I truly can't wait to play at the IBMA World Of Bluegrass, then bring my pals to my home province and share what we've been working on.
If you can make it to a show I'd be grateful, and you can hear how I say some words funny now innit.
My darling has a birthday, which means another collage of pics, and awarding her the top wife prize for another year. Reigning champ!
Love you!
The band and I are needing to rent a van in Ontario, who's good, what's good, who won't gouge us preferably!
Thanks so much to for hooking me up with this neck! I'm sitting in the airport anxiously awaiting my flight so I can go set up my 1972 Gibson as a 5 stringer!
Special shout out to the for receiving and hanging onto it 🙌
