Album Notes

I landed in Canada on a BOAC jetliner from Scotland as a little kid. The first time I heard a Beatles song my mother was tossing carefully wrapped butter and sugar sandwiches to me out our apartment window. A singular moment.

Coming to life in Toronto, post-20th century, this music is hand-crafted from stories, dreams, poems, twisted syntax, hopeless optimism, and nameless joy, but not by me. These songs capture for me the bass gritty essence of raw material. Some people witch water, I catch flying sandwiches of deeper meaning.

"You have a punkish/60s/psychedelic edge to your sound.... your music has a cool gritty vibe that works well with the lyrics that you write. Your vocal delivery is original and has a real raw kind of feel that fits your songs well....Nice electric guitar textures.... you've got a gift for writing very poetic, associative lyrics....Unique verse lyrics that are evocative and poetic. I can hear the Kinks influence in your verse melody! This has a great, convincing retro sound....you have a great aesthetic about your music."

There is more to the sound than meets the ear.
