Thanks to the 550 people who bought tickets to "Artists for Station 20" and the over 50 volunteers who made the evening such an amazing success. Between ticket sales (net $15,000) and donations that day, we raised $53,045 for Station 20 West!!!! We could not have done it without the fabulously talented artists who performed, so thank you all: Andrea Menard, Yann Martel, Henry Woolf, Sheldon Corbett, George Tennent, Lawrence Roy Jr., Kent Allen, Eileen Laverty, Ricasso, BC Read, Gillian Snider, Teegan Jeffers, the Amati Quartet, Mykal Gambull, and Ken Neitz. It was sponsored by Grosvenor Park United Church. Please see more about Station 20 West and make your donation today HERE. More on "Artists for Station 20" can be found HERE.
I continue to work as a live music performance coach. Last summer saw my first international gig working with a wonderful young songwriter in, of all places, Los Angeles!!! And a few weeks ago I was booked to give a weekend workshop in Winnipeg for Manitoba Music. For details check out my performance coaching site: Nexstage. There are also some new testimonials posted.
About this website: While many know me as a young audience performer, I've always been just as interested in working with, and for, teens and adults. In fact, 90% of my original writing is for older folks. Which makes the development of a website a bit of a trick: how to engage all ages at once?
I got thinking about the hundreds of Q & A sessions I've given after school concerts and realized that I could easily come up with a long FAQ page. Kids want to know more about how we artists do it, from writing to publishing to recording to making a living. So, throughout my site you'll find a FAQ or two. I hope people of all ages will find these interesting. And if you have questions that aren't answered in my site, please e-mail me. I'd like to start another section that features your queries and comments.
