If you’re listening to this CD, you are now part of a special night of music for me. These songs were so much fun to perform and record, and I’m absolutely thrilled to have had such an awesome group of people to do it with -- I’m grateful for their hard work and good vibes. Most of all, I’m glad that you are hearing this.
Special thanks to the band, the Alberta Street Pub, our fearless engineer Chris, our lovely audience of dancers and singers, my family band, mentors past, present and future, the gods of love and sound, anyone who’s ever hummed one of my songs absent-mindedly when I could hear them or told me about it later, and to all my other musical partners in crime (who will be on the next CD!)
