Hello to everyone
 
The album is finally completed. It has just been released in Europe by Monotreme Records, and has been receiving good press from publications such as Uncut, Q, Independent. Mojo Magazine has selected it as their Americana album of the month.

 
I am heading out to Europe this month with my traveling companions for a tour.  Upon returning, we will be doing some shows to celebrate the release of the album in Canada. The official release date for Canada is April 21st, but you can still order the album online through Monotreme Record’s website. The album is available both in cd and vinyl format.

I have just finished working on a video that was directed by Brian Harrington. I can’t thank him enough for the wonderful job he has done with it. And I also have to thank Lynda Hall for her lovely camera work.
You can see the video here.  http://www.vimeo.com/3646792
