Western Canada Tour/San Diego/Olympics Recap

Hello my cube-loving friends! I figured it was time for a fat ol' update, since February was absolutely packed and there's a lot to talk about. First of all, my CD dropped in HMV, CD Plus and Sunrise Records across Canada on Feb. 2nd. To promote the CD release, we kicked off the Western Canada OneByOne Tour (I've posted a video below to give you a taste of what it's like touring half of Canada in the winter - what was I thinking?! : ) ). It was actually and truly a blast despite the cold and we met so many incredible people. Right after the tour I headed to Vancouver to take in a quick dose of Olympic spirit and play at one of the Victory Ceremonies at BC Place.

As some of you know, when I'm not playing my own music, I perform with Canadian Country Artist, Paul Brandt. Paul was the headliner for the "Alberta Night" Victory Ceremony (the night Maelle Ricker received her gold medal for snowboard cross!). That was such a fun show, for obvious reasons.

The next morning (we're talking 4 AM kind of morning), I hopped on a plane to San Diego to attend a music industry retreat for four days (and to thaw any remaining ice from my veins after touring the prairies). It was a weekend of non-stop music and it was so inspiring to see some incredible talent like Kevin Hammond, Grace Potter and the Nocturnals, and Alpha Rev. Check them out before they become household names! 

After San Diego, we headed back to the craziness that was the Vancouver Olympics. I had a few shows around the city, which were really fun. And then one final show at the Media Club this past Wednesday. 

And that leads me to the here and now. As you can see it's been a crazy past month. On top of all that my latest single, "I've Got That Feelin" has been played across the country by radio stations including Virgin Radio in Vancouver, QMFM in Vancouver and Sun FM stations in the Okanagan area of BC. It has been absolutely amazing the support these stations have given the single. If you haven't heard it yet, you can actually download it for FREE and feel free to pass it on to your friends if you dig it. Here's the linkage: http://www.box.net/shared/static/s7edzmeg8o.mp3
