as we ramp up to officially release 'a date with a smoke machine', there are a bunch of activities underway. i've put up all my solo records on a really cool site called 'band camp'. so far you can listen to the entire back catalogue and soon you'll be able to purchase tracks in any format imaginable.
you can download the first track from smoke machine, 'two twenty twos' for free at the moment, so dig around and be sure to grab that. check back often as more stuff will be coming online and you'll be able to get the entire new record here shortly.
if you haven't seen it, the new video for 'coax the ending day' has been released. i remember when putting out a vid meant a ton of work, money and energy only to cross your fingers with bleak hope that it would show up once on the 'the wedge'. so thank you, youtube:
thank you to stephanie montreuil for the really nice live pics she took at a recent show. she kindly allowed me to use them for promo purposes so i thought i'd include a couple in this post.

next up: video for two twenty twos and show bookings. want me to play in your town? get in touch. believe it or not, i'll actually be heading out on the road soon. where i play is completely up in the air at the moment.

it's cool to be nominated for 'best new artist' in ottawa: even though i'm not sure what it all means and i've got more than a few friends getting a kick out it.
anyway, you should vote for me here at the ottawa xpress.
i thought i'd dig up an old pic for the occasion of me and someone else who could have easily been nominated for best new artist in ottawa, todd gibbon of the fiftymen. :)
can anyone guess the year?
speaking of something actually 'new', my new album is here and stacked up in a basement closet. it hits the streets feb. 16th...many more details to follow.
