Back in town for a bit.....
Soundcheck at Rexall Place in Edmonton opening for Keith Urban
The summer of 2015 has been so hectic and so much fun. Maintained a ridiculous schedule with Kira Isabella, playing many of the bigger country and non country festivals of the summer, such as Ottawa Blues Fest, Cavendish fest in PEI, Boots and Hearts, Calgary Stampede etc…..as well as awesome arena shows opening for the likes of Keith Urban and Jason Aldean. Over June and July we were back and forth from Alberta at least 5 times! Ontario festival Boots and hearts was especially fun as I played Friday and Saturday with new country artist Jesse Labelle, and then the Sunday with Kira.
On days off from touring, I stayed busy in the city playing shows for the Pan am games as well as Para Pan am games with Jasmine Denham (one of the cowriters of the the Pan am games theme song “together we are one”) as well as TV performances with Soul Pop act NEFE, shows with country act Autumn Hill, Electronic Band Most Non Heinous, Cd release party with Stevie Carlyle as well as many corporate gigs.
It was also an absoloute pleasure to be part of the Honeyjam house band on august 13th! Honey jam is an all female artist showcase that celebrated it’s 20th year this year. We as the house band backed up nine amazing up and coming new female artists. Some awesome talent there from all over canada that I’m sure we will be hearing from a lot more in the future.
Exciting upcoming stuff involves fall tour dates, recording a record in New York and more in town shows that Im very much looking forward to!
