Toronto CD Release:Come on, come on. Come on out to the Horseshoe Tavern this Saturday if you can or desire to see the Toronto launch show of this new "
Where the Bungalows Roam" record.
After a terrific solo tour with Jill Barber west, it is fun to be back with other instruments around me for this show.
We may have lost Jeremy after Wakefield for a long while to the Fire dept., but all the rest of the gents are intact and
Jon Lomow is branching out and getting his itchy piano fingers
nimble and ready to go.
Joining us is the Band Americana

"Their Favourite Band at SXSW 2007*", the lovely
OX. Doors happen at 9pm and Ottawa hockey folks can watch with us in the front bar.
