Hey Everyone,


How is summer treating you? It's a hot one this year in most places on this planet. Reading up on it and it seems that this is the trend for our future. I hope you're all managing to find places to cool off and enjoy the sunshine regardless.

It's been an amazing summer for me. One I will remember for a long time. The highlight hands down was my family coming to visit me for 2 weeks. Despite having over 18 gigs during the month of August and dragging them around with me to many shows, we somehow found time to do lots of other interesting activities, too.

On the music front, CD sales have been great. For over 10 years selling CDs directly from the stage has been the hot spot, but recently my internet sales have really increased as well. I'd like to give a big shout out to a lot of the internet radio stations and my fans for doing what they can to spread the word. In particular, Indie Showcase Radio, The Portal Magazine, FM OZE, FM Taro, Smile FM, Nemu Nemu, and friends Flossie Gateman, Charlie, Dana Brown, Paula Fortney and Simon Smith. There are many more of you as well that have really worked hard to cheer to me on and the list is too long to mention. Thank you all deeply.

What’s up and coming?

I'm planning to get some of my musical friends from overseas to do a small tour here in Japan with me again.  While I do have a Japanese band the vibe of mixing the two together was amazing last time so I will be doing it again only playing bigger and better venues.   Dates not made yet. 

Stay tuned for a documentary about the making of the CD “THESE DAYS”. I will soon be releasing it in 3 to 5 minute parts. It’s been on hold for a while due to an insanely busy summer.

More accoustic video and MP3 versions of my songs coming up on youtube.

Merchandise is just around the corner as well. I’ve been working on T-shirt designs, cups, posters etc but again, almost there.

I’ve been searching for someone to make a proper music video. I had someone in mind and was excited about it but because of time conflicts it fell through.

Finally a small favour.

Thos of you who have purchased a song on iTunes before, if you click on myiTunes page and write a simple 2 or 3 sentence comment saying you like the CD “THESE DAYS” and rate 5 stars, it really helps bring traffic to my page. I will send you a FREE download link of your album of choice (one you don’t have). Just make sure to let me know you wrote something, what album you’d like and I’ll get back to you immediately.

Read some of the reviews about my new CD. Click here.

Again, stay tuned for a lot of new things.  In the meantime, I hope you're all doing well.

Hey everyone!


How's it going? 

I have a favour to ask of you if you have 5 mintues to spare.  

If you use iTunes and/or CD baby  I would be GRATEFUL if you could find the time to all write a two or 3 sentence review about my new CD "THESE DAYS" on their site.

The more reviews I have the better chance of a sale (providing the reviews are nice lol).  So, if you have an account with them (or any site) where you could say a couple of nice things about my new CD I'd really appreciate it!  Thank you very much!

Have a great weekend!

Hello again everyone
.

Today is an exciting day for me. It’s sunny outside and it’s Friday and my CDs just arrived! You can now purchase my CDs directly from my store and they will ship out immediately and shipping is free! I will also personally sign each CD.

You can listen to the songs in full on the music page.

Please have a look at the different plans I have and see if one of them works for you.
I will be adding more merchandise in the near future.

The CD is also available for download on iTunes, Amazon, CDbaby, and so on.

By the way, a very big THANK YOU to all my sponsors and supporters over the last few months. I am very touched by you all cheering me on! Thanks to you I was able to make a very high quality CD and release it in an environmentally friendly jacket.

I hope you listen and enjoy it.

Hey everyone!


Just a quick note to let you know that I sent out the CD master to get pressed today. After 5 months of making the CD they will be ready to share after May 25th. I went environmentally friendly this time around and searched hard for a company to manufacture my CDs with no plastic and printed in vegetable ink. It cost a lot more money but I'll sleep better at night. There's also a 8 page booklet included with the CD. I hope you check it out.

You can check out a sample of all the songs by watching the video I made on this page.

Hope you're all well.

February/2010
Happy 2010

How has 2010 been treating you so far? I hope it’s a great year for you.

I am actually very excited about this year. I spent the first part of it down in Australia recording my latest CD with producer Greg Arnold and I am really happy with the way everything fell into place and the tracks on the CD are sounding very big! The songs have just finished being edited and are now off to get mixed and mastered by Michael Letho at Michael Letho Productions. Once that is done, they get  sent off to be printed. I’m hoping the CDs will be available in about 4 to 6 weeks. The vibe on this CD is a lot different than my previous album FUEL but I like to think we raised the bar and I stepped up another level.
Greg Arnold was extremely easy to work with and he brought with him a bag full of tricks and an incredible energy that I think finds its way onto this new album. I’ve been a huge fan of his songwriting for the last 15 or so years so it was a real honor that we ended up co-writing two songs for this CD. I managed to take heaps of photos and video so stay tuned in the next few months for documented footage of the making of this CD.

Don't forgot to check out the video blogs,  go to the forum or sign the guest book!

Talk soon!

December/2009

Hello everyone


Well, it’s that time of year again where you’re probably all busy preparing for the holidays. I hope it all runs smoothly for you.

It’s going to be a very different winter for me this year as I leave for Melbourne, Australia on December 19th to record my 5th CD. I will be recording it with producer Greg Arnold who I am a big fan of. I fly into Melbourne on a Sunday around 2 pm and then we start rehearsing that evening. I will be documenting the whole trip on camera and video camera so when I come back I should have a visual library full of the events that took place.

Since its Christmas I wanted to let you know that I will be offering my Album “FUEL” for free for 48 hours for anyone who drops by my website on December 25th and 26th. I realize there is a time difference around the world so I will send out a quick newsletter again to let you all know when I initiate it. Most of you already have the CD so if you want to tell a good friend it could make a nice present.

A Christmas song I co-wrote with good friend Mark Clay a couple of years back in on my site as a free download right now. It's called Christmas Everyday and it's a fun sexy song so make sure to get it and add it to the Christmas songs this season. It’s also getting some exposure on several internet radio stations and the Vancouver Province.

I have posted a video blog about a week ago here where I answer the question I’m getting a lot lately, “Why Australia”. I will also be posting a video blog once a week while down under. Come back often to check them out!




Please join my mailing list and receive a free MP3 of my popular song "She's Just Like Summer" and more.



Finally, don't forget to check out some of the songs I have up for free.  Just click here to go to the download page..



Are you on Twitter, Facebook,  Myspace or otherClick here and share your sites with me.



Below, I have a DONATE link. No pressure but if anyone feels like helping out a hard working, honest independent musician towards making a great new CD, your donations will be gratefully appreciated. In fact, once the CD is done, a personally signed CD will be sent to you as a token of my thanks. (Please read here for full details)
