It’s been a really busy month of June. I’ve got the all the tracking done for the new EP and it’s sounding amazing!

Starting off recording the EP, the most important thing to me and my Producer Todd Simko was to keep that magic alive in the songs. We didn’t want to loose the rough edges and little characteristics of the songs. We always said, “we were trying to capture moments in the performance, more so then just recording the songs to perfection”.

We recorded three out of the six tracks live off the floor in Todd’s home and we just waited for those magical takes to reveal themselves. Once we decided the takes had something special to them we started to add other instruments to complement the rest of the sound.

I was really excited to have Adeline come in to sing on a track for the EP. She has the most amazing voice I’ve ever heard! You must check her out http://www.myspace.com/adalinesmusic

I’m also in a contest with Shore104fm. It’s one of BC’s biggest songwriting contest with a $20,000 top Prize! If I make top ten I will need your help with some online votes! Check out the other amazing top 20 artists here! http://www.shoresoundsofsummer.com/songsearch.cfm

I’m planning to book a long tour across Canada for the fall to release the EP. The CD release show will be announced soonish!
