Day 2 “Thoughts On The Albums” : ‘FAREWELL GHOST TOWN’ (2006)Produced by Don Kerr and Tim Bovaconti, recorded at The Gas Station on Toronto Island and fueled by Guinness. This was a lot of fun to make and it’s a favourite of mine, long out of print but I’m hoping to issue it on vinyl […]
June 5th Bandcamp will be waiving their revenue share, a good day to buy music from artists you dig. Since my debut album will be turning 15 June 8th, I thought we’d make it available on Bandcamp at a special low price starting on the 5th along with bonus tracks. I also thought I would […]
