There seems to be an excess of activity happening presently - that I find it almost impossible to devote time to the creative aspects of the music. I prefer to spend my time writing tunes, practicing my guitar, and playing gigs (as we all would Im sure), vegging out - but in reality, I have spent most of my time in the last few months on other assorted activities necessary to keep the wheels in motion. I would like to hook up with a company or person to work with - who can handle / assist with such things as bookings local and on the road, publicity, promotion, website updates, a bit of artwork, press kits, forms, grants, mailing list maintenance, cashing in on opportunities, etc. - I may be describing a range of skills and persons, but perhaps a single individual can do some / all / most of the above. I would appreciate hearing people on the list who may be interested in working on this project with me, and who would like to find out more about what I'm up to. Could be a good opportunity for all involved, and a good time to move the music to the next plateau. Please contact me directly (not through Maplepost) with your thoughts. Thanks in advance.

I believe the following is an accurate summary of the conversation - please fill in whatever I have omitted. We spoke for about twenty minutes on the subject of why there were no royalties received for a substantial amount of airplay received overseas during the last few years. By the time we spoke, Dave had already researched some of ECMA charts where my tunes were listed, as well as the radio stations and DJs. His concerns and questions were related to such things as the radio stations were legitimate (not garage operations), the spins happened, DJs were real, the charts and playlists were verifiable, syndication and number of stations, and if the programs were 'one hour specials' or station format. He offered various scenarios about tracking plays, challenges involved in working with their associate agencies in other countries, circumstances under which SOCAN would have difficulty collecting royalties, etc. Also, Dave encouraged me to ask all questions for anything on my mind, for which he responded to the best of his knowledge. After the conversation I had little doubt that the spins were sufficient and verifiable; radio stations and DJs are real and traceable; the charts verifiable by the EMCA - and the play should qualify for royalty payments. I'm sure Dave agreed, although it was not spoken. Still no royalties have ever been received. To move the matter forward, Dave said he would present the information to Irene Herzuk at Socan for follow up. Irene is the lady I corresponded with in the past and sent her a lot of playlists. Perhaps with the help of Dave there could be some positive results now. Dave said he would write some notes to the list regarding the conversation, as well as some follow-up when available. It takes a lot of work - as people on this list are astutely aware - for an independent self-promoting artist to get airplay overseas. Any assistance or payback from Agencies as SOCAN can only help to fund the next CD project. It's an endless cycle, and circular reference loop, and a self-propelling never-ending passion. Dave and Socan - thanks for your time and personal concern. It's greatly appreciated.

However, I will try to be a tad more tactful with my response than Richard, although his experience and knowledge on the subject is excellent. Brian, as recently as 1999, SOCAN paid out approximately $12,000,000 from European airplay. Suffice to say, we do know how it is done. That being said, I imagine that this does not sufficiently answer your question. I encourage you to call me at our office (800 557-6226, 416 445-8700) and I will be more than happy to answer your questions. (Please don't tell me that your songs are top ten on a country station out of Norway - I can guarantee you that virtually nobody has ever seen any money from those "performances".)

Took them over, & Dan was great - he remembered them & they talked about how Dan gave the boys a lesson on the mandolin on a park bench that day. The mom mentioned that mandolin music was hard to find - Dan gives her his home ph # & says to call anytime & he'll send her some stuff, plus mentioned a website. After they leave Dan says to Joey "10 years from now they'll be shredding us & I'll be the one wanting to see them backstage!" The same boys were also at the Cindy Thompson show. Cindy had heard that the one boy wasn't practicing his fiddle. She started to tell him about when she was a young girl, she'd go down by the river & play all day, come in for supper & go back again. Really encouraged him to get lost in the music & to keep practicing, no matter how much the fingers hurt. It's great to see these performers take the time with the youngsters & encourage them. Like Dan said -they'll be the ones on stage one day, & the future of folk music.

More information is available at: _____________________________________________________________________ Wed June 5 - Great Triple Bill $10 featuring Don Bray Tannis Slimmon Terry Tufts Don Bray Don is a singer-songwriter/acoustic guitarist of remarkable scope. His acoustic roots-tinged contemporary folk performances are filled with humour, energy and an incredible range of emotion. His honesty, craft and heart are clearly evident on both of his CDs. Don comes by his talent honestly. During his early childhood in Kentucky, he was immersed in the passionate swells of the Black spirituals and the gospel music his father, Colin, sang for Billy Graham. Don's influences include James Taylor, Bruce Cockburn and Leo Kottke. He delivers a full guitar sound, playing bass, lead, rhythm and percussion on one instrument with consummate skill... For more information, please visit: - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Tannis Slimmon Tannis Slimmon is well known on the Canadian music scene for years as a member of the critically acclaimed Bird Sisters, and the driving roots/rock trio, Benji. Folks will also know Slimmon for lending her tremendously soulful, lyrical voice to such renowned bands as The SkyDiggers and The Rheostatics, as well as to the recordings of some of Canada's finest songwriters (Willie P. Bennett, James Gordon, Gwen Swick). Tannis held her CD Release concert here last January to celebrate her new CD, "Oak Lake". We're extremely pleased to host another performance. If you missed the celebration (or you just need more!), come out & join in on some great sing-alongs! For more information, please visit . - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Terry Tufts Terry Tufts has been playing professionally for three decades. His music is inspired and his lyrics speak straight from the heart. His guitar playing is from the same school that created John Fahey and Leo Kottke: strong melodies supported by uniquely crafted finger- style orchestrations, painting stirring backdrops for some engaging stories. His rapport with the audience is strengthened by a lightning deftness and a command of the fingerboard that leaves the listener breathless. His talents have carried him all over the world where he has been employed by numerous artists in the studio and in live performance for his abilities on a variety of instruments and a seemingly limitless vocal range. He has released four independently produced albums...

Audiences from Copenhagen to Cortes Island have thrilled to the Bills' blend of choreographed on-stage antics and infectiously danceable music. Whether it's blistering, Brazilian mandolin melodies and the hilarious use of random objects (a mandolin solo with a candelabra?), breathtaking, virtuosic two-fiddle flights, outrageously exotic bowed banjo solos, or soulful vocal renderings of the world's most hummable melodies, The Bills are a musical and visual joy to behold. More information: ! - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Darcie Deaville Few musicians combine Darcie Deaville's versatility, virtuosity and creativity. A fiery fiddler, she runs the gamut from break-downs to swing to challenging contemporary improvisation. She plays mandolin and octave mandolin in her own distinctive style and picks guitar with authority. Possessing a wide vocal range and a strong, expressive voice, Darcie can sing lead or harmony and can sing while fiddling (a rare ability). As a songwriter she won the prestigious Kerrville New Folk Competition. She has a compelling on stage presence, whether she appears solo, fronts a band or plays with others (Tish Hinojosa, Butch Hancock, Peter Rowan, Jimmy LaFave, Kelly Willis and Ani DiFranco). _____________________________________________________________________ Fri June 7 - Ray Montford Group $12adv/$15 w/ Rob Greenway, Gary Craig, John Dymond & Steve O'Connor The critically acclaimed guitarist has been wowing fans and listeners everywhere with his powerfully visual and lyrical compositions. Ray released his first record "The Light Within" in 1991, and in 1997, "Shed Your Skin", a cross-cultural recording that stretches the boundaries of contemporary guitar-based instrumentals. The result is an unclassifiable blend that borrows from rock, folk, jazz, blues, world and classical and leaves every listener with one common sentiment - his music paints moving and vivid pictures. "One Step Closer", a very acoustic collection, followed in 2000, and electric-edged "Many Roads" is about to hit the stores! Hope you join us for a night that promises to take you on many intriguing musical journeys! Please visit for more information. _____________________________________________________________________ Sat June 8 - Stephen Fearing $18.50adv/$20 Back by popular demand! Stephen recently released his new CD, "That's How I Walk", at the club in March, and since, we've had many, many requests for his speedy return. There are only a few tickets left, so best to call and reserve now. What is telling about a great songwriter's work is the ability for their lyrics to stand on their own. Left without context, or musical backdrop, the words still flow and have meaning. For almost 17 years now, Stephen Fearing has been penning some of the most literate, stirring and emotionally charged "folk" music on this planet. Couple this with stunning guitar work, and a smooth intimate voice that can project sudden power, it's easy to see why Stephen Fearing has established himself as one of Canada's most important singer/ songwriters.

WADE HEMSWORTH, a Celebration of his Life & Songs! A tribute to one of Canada’s greatest songwriters — and a long-time resident of Morin Heights — will take place June 8 at the Corona Theatre in Montreal. A distinguished list of performers, including Kate and Anna McGarrigle, Penny Lang, Linda Morrison, Chris Rawlings and Jack Nissenson, will gather to honour Wade Hemsworth, who died in January at the age of 85. Hemsworth composed less than twenty songs over a fifty year period. But his works were carefully crafted, and sometimes so singable and eminently “Canadian” that they came to be regarded as folksongs. “The Blackfly Song” has been sung around campfires for years, while “The Wild Goose” and “The Land of the Muskeg” stirringly capture the loneliness and grandeur of the Canadian wilderness. Hemsworth’s songs were widely recorded, by the McGarrigle sisters and others, and frequently used in National Film Board productions. An animated version of “The Log Driver’s Waltz” proved one of the NFB’s most popular productions in recent years. Hemsworth was born in Brantford, Ontario, in 1916, and studied at the Ontario College of Art in Toronto. He joined the RCAF during World War II, and was stationed in Newfoundland where he observed the then-colony’s strong folk traditions. He worked on survey crews in northern Ontario and Quebec after the war, and found inspiration for many of his songs. Thereafter he worked as a design draftsman for CN in Montreal, and kept a cottage at Sixteen Island Lake. After retiring, he was a resident of Morin Heights for more than twenty-five years. All proceeds from the concert will go to the Wade Hemsworth Scholarship Fund, to assist young musicians.

From a capped field of 600 international performers who submit their original songs, 32 are selected as finalists. This year Canadian singer-songwriter AENGUS FINNAN was invited to perform his song "O'Shaughnessy's Lament" as a finalist at the Threadgill Memorial Theatre on Sat. May 25th. En route back to Washington D.C. for his show at the Kennedy Center, he learned he is one of the 6 winners of this year's competition. Aengus has returned to Texas to receive his award and perform a set this Sun. June 2. Also appearing that night are Vance Gilbert, The Waifs, John Gorka, and the Austin Lounge Lizards. All concerts are broadcast on 24 hour delay at www.kerrvillefolkfestival.com The 5 other New Folk winners are: Annie Gallup - Ann Arbor, MI Annie Mosher - Nashville, TN Cheley Tackett - Nashville, TN Nels Andrews - Albuquerque, NM Zoe Lewis - Provincetown, MA Past finalists and award winners include Shawn Colvin, Lyle Lovett, Nanci Griffith, John Gorka, Vance Gilbert, Slaid Cleaves, and Ellis Paul. The sartorial world can breathe easy - Aengus did not return sporting a cowboy hat. However, there are unsubstantiated rumours of a Hawaiian print shirt and baseball cap... *************** Those in the Kitchener - Waterloo area of Ontario who care to check whether such scandalous costuming changes are occurring can catch Aengus this coming Thurs.

This Friday it is The LAWS from beautiful B.C. Here's their background::
 
Along with their trademark harmony singing, the Laws take their listeners
on a musical journey from a bar stool to a raging river, hitting the road,
heartache, the pain of separation and the joy of being in love (which they
are).

Soon to be relocating back to Ontario from Saltspring Island, BC, The Laws
are John and Michele, husband-and-wife acoustic songwriting duo,
performing original music that crosses the boundaries of country,
bluegrass and folk.
                                         
Known for their "tight-as-a-glove" harmony singing, John and Michele's
vocal harmonies are exquisite and exciting, their solos powerful at times,
angelic at others.  With John on lead guitar and mandolin and Michele on
rhythm guitar and bass, their instrumental work is flawless and inventive.
 
They have received rave reviews for their debut CD, "Estimated Time of
Revival".  This collection of finely crafted songs, delivered with their
stellar harmonies  has drawn comparisons to Alison Kraus and Gram Parsons.
Their songs are pure and simple, with bare-bones arrangements that give
room to the stories they tell. Indeed, their tremendous musicianship,
bluegrasss-tinged "heartland" songs, and warm stage presence win over
audiences at every show, and continue to gain them an enthusiastic and
growing following.

With musical influences ranging from Johnny Cash and Roger Miller to
Townes Van Zandt and Lucinda Williams, they bring a traditional, pure
sensibility to their infectious songs.  You only have to hear these tunes
once and you'll be humming them for a long time.

Don is a singer-songwriter/acoustic guitarist of remarkable scope. His acoustic roots-tinged contemporary folk performances are filled with humour, energy and an incredible range of emotion. During his early childhood in Kentucky, he was immersed in the passionate swells of the Black spirituals and the gospel music his father, Colin, sang for Billy Graham. The Tranzac Club, 292 Brunswick (at Bloor), Toronto 9:45: Showtime Brian Blain and Don Bray No Cover 8:00-9:30: Open gospel-blues picking session/song circle with Josie & Jeremy Next Thurs, June13, Mark Sepic joins me. We are shut down for a few weeks after that except for "the reely big show" in the big back room on Friday, June 28 (part of the Downtown Jazz Festival). There will be many special guests dropping in, mostly folks who've been down for the Thursdays over the last year - yes, we're celebrating one year of Acoustic Thursdays! If you never checked out our Acoustic Thursdays... because there was too much smoke, or because you had to get up early the next morning....here's your chance to feel the vibe we've been putting down - a laid back workshop-type setting - in a smoke-free environment, on a week-end evening with world-class artists. There's a modest cover charge for this one.

This most funky & venerable venue has served us well, gotten us our picture in the funny pages, and introduced us to a lot of very nice looking and well-mannered young women. Its owners, Paul and Cindy, have always made us feel right at home, so it's with a bittersweet feeling that we bid this good old room adieu. Alas, the time has come to rattle the cage, and someone once said there's no better time to leave than when everything is going great (who the hell was that, anyway!?!) We're moving to a much bigger venue come Fall, where we will be presenting our own monthly "GRAND OLD UPROAR", complete with musical & comedic guests (details to follow...). At any rate, if you haven't already and you have a hankering to, please do come and join us over the next four Sundays to bring our Cameron run to a warm & friendly close...

Fry earned a Juno nomination with the release of her first CD, "Rites of Passage" in 1995. In 1996, CBC Radio set out to capture Georgette’s powerful stage presence for broadcast live on Saturday Night Blues. The set turned out so well it became her second CD, "Georgette Live". The live recording was met with rave reviews which earned her: the Jazz Report Award for Blues Musician of the Year; two Real Blues Magazine Awards for Best Canadian Blues Vocalist (1997, 1998), and two nominations for Female Vocalist of the Year from the Maple Blues Awards (1997, 1998). A soulful singer with a distinctive voice, Georgette Fry is also an accomplished songwriter and 7 of the 12 tracks on her new CD are Fry originals. The Boston Herald writes, “ …the blues enriches every song, and every vocal shines with that rare commodity: intelligence. Modern blues seldom gets as personal and mature”. http://www.georgettefry.ca/ Nancy Greig Absolutely Music njgreig@absolutelymusic.on.ca (613)531-8827 - To unsubscribe: mail majordomo@icomm.ca with "unsubscribe maplepost" in the body (not the subject line) Need help? mail owner-maplepost@icomm.ca From info@torontobluessociety.com Wed Jun 5 12:14:32 2002 Date: Wed Jun 5 12:14:32 2002 From: Toronto Blues Society info@torontobluessociety.com Subject: [mplpost] TBS Talent Search Winner THE WINNER IS....

There are three shows I'd like to draw your attention to. It'll be hard to get to all three in one night, but, dammit, I'm gonna give it a try - and it'd be nice if you could join me! Show #1 CORB LUND BAND, Tranzac 292 Bunswick just south of Bloor. 9.00 p.m. About to release his first CD on the Stony Plain label, "Five Dollar Bill," Edmonton's Corb Lund is a remarkable songwriter who's probably too country for pop/rock fans, and not country enough for country! Enormously popular in Alberta, Corb is a young man who comes out of the rodeo circuit, but who delivers music that's both edgy and accessible - wonderfully strange and quirky songs, loads of on-stage energy, and a sense of humour. He doesn't come east that often; this is a very rare appearance in this part of the world. And you can see why Stony Plain's Holger Petersen - a man of impeccable taste - signed the man to his label. Ian Tyson says Corb's "the real deal" - and he's right! After Corb's done, you run like mad to Show #2 TAMMY FAYE STARLITE, Bovine Sex Club, 542 Queen W, 10 p.m. Ms. Starlite is all your worst fears about country music. She's cute, she's blonde, she's been known to take some/most of her clothes off on stage. She drinks Wild Turkey, she pops pills, and she's seen far too many country artists go weepy-eyed and pious about Jesus. This New York performance artist's repertoire includes such underground classics as "Did I Shave My Vagina For This?" and "Jesus Has Placed a Lodger in My Uterus" - an hilarious takeoff/piss take on the worst excesses of Nashville. This is grown-up stuff; offensive, sacriligious, profane, XXX-rated - and, if you can handle it, VERY funny. When you've stopped laughing (or gone home to write me an angry e-mail), check out Show #3 MAD VIOLET, Reilly's Pub, 340 Yonge St, south of Gerrard, 11.30 p.m. Mad Violet is Brenley McEachern (vocals, guitar), Lisa MacIsaac (violin, guitar, vocals) plus their band - a drummer and a fabulous cellist who doubles on bass. Radio worthy pop songs with heart and sincerity, and a winning performance by two remarkably accomplished musicians. If I was to mention any band I've heard recently that's gonna meet international success, it has to be this one - and, no, we don't handle their publicity; I just think they're terrific!

(Wow, Nancy, what an exciting lead paragraph. Why why why is the Globe not offering you a column?????) En tout cas... I will try to be brief and adjective free. June 8,Saturday - Roma Musical Experience at the Arts and Letters Club, 14 Elm Street, a venue with a bar. Stella Walker's producing this show, in which she also sings Brahms' and Dvorak's adaptations of Roma melodies. Also: Hungarian-born jazz group The Botos Brothers, world music trio E Zhivindi Yag, and the Golden River Gypsy Band, originally from Russian, offering music and dance in the style of the Teatro Roman-Moscow. Ronald Lee hosts. Curtain 8 p.m., tickets $18, which can be reserved from the diva herself at (416) 534-9958. June 9,Sunday. Mariposa Festival cd launch party at the Tranzac, 8 p.m. (doors open at 7), adm.$10, and you can buy the cd for $10. On the bill: Jenny Whiteley, members of Swamperella, Bob Snider, Dave Clarke (from Steel Rail), Lady Luscious (from Woman Ah Run Tings), Serena Ryder, Spirit Wind, and me, Nancy White, accompanied by the lovely Bob Johnston. June 14. Ron Hynes is doing a house concert in my very own neighbourhood. 8 p.m., 29 Vermont. Suggested donation $10. Bring drinks and snacks. Reservations (please, so she knows how many chairs to borrow) from Carrie at (416) 535-1512, or at wbwb@sympatico.ca. June 22. Marcelo Puente and Grupo Taller in concert at the Centro Cultural Barrabas. 4190 Dundas St.W., at Prince Eward, between Jane and Royal York. It's a bit hard to find, just get the street number right- the entrance is around the side and there's parking around back. Tickets $10. Marcelo Puente is that wonderful Chilean singer-songwriter who played with Compañeros at the Trojan Horse in the late 70's. His album "Mares y Barrios" is just gorgeous. Oops - I guess that was an adjective. And here comes another one: Grupo Taller - whose core is Victor Saldivia and several of his talented sons -- are fantastic. I'm going away now.

This is my seventh recording of original music. Interested people can check my web site below for orders and news or contact me at dugimac@sympatico.ca. Here are the liner notes: Imagining America You could consider this CD to be a continuation of the exploration of America started with ³Angels of the Mission Trail² (Doug McArthur & Jeffra tv 1111). On that CD we sang about the history and reality of California. I had not done a solo CD for many years and decided to record this one with just my old guitar. I still perform with Jeffra whenever I can. My own experience imagining the US includes growing up in a tourist town on Lake Huron where we saw Americans as cash cows with skis strapped to their car roofs in July. Then tentative journeys to Ann Arbor and Detroit, tours in the early eighties with Stan Rogers, cross country many times in the early nineties with Garnet, solo tours to New England and finally a straight five years in San Francisco partnering with Jeffra on a number of historical music projects. I returned to Canada and started a web design business only to have my first big client waft me down to Texas. Now I know them better. And I like them more. Their history is now my history. In this spirit I imagine America. The Songs: Witness: I stood at New York¹s Ground Zero with these words ringing in my head. Boots & Saddles: On tour in Pennsylvania, after several days living in Clank, the old GMC van, Stan and the boys dropped into an isolated roadhouse. The waitress came over to talk. We were not the first sailors on these shores. Cottontop: I didn¹t mind my hair turning gray when I turned fifty but I was surprised to find myself invisible on the streets of Haight-Ashbury. The Dust of Davy Crockett: Surreal layered history and a pretty good computer joke. Computer jokes are hard to write. Silverado: The lovely Napa valley holds more than one treasure and so many stories. Louisiana Angel: Written on a ragged drive Œcross Texas on my way to California. Of course the Dark Angel would be a beautiful hitchhiker on US 20. The recurring line comes from Rumi. Lone Star: An unlikely series of events brought me to the world¹s largest chemical plant south of Houston. The image vs. the reality in East Texas. Comanche Moon: European entrepreneurs sold German families on the free land, milk and honey of the high Texas plains. The Comanche may have been the most effective military force ever seen in North America. Who the Woz Was: It¹s been a wild ride in Silicon Valley. All those idea guys that wanted to change the world in the Œ60¹s did it in the Œ90¹s. How? Maybe the Homebrew club, Captain Crunch whistles and a genial genius named Wozniak. Oh, and the Cavity Magnetron. For sure. Justice: This song was included on the ³Tears of a Thousand Years² CD featuring Canadian artists reacting to the Sept. 11th attack. A word here about my 1976 Larrivée guitar. It has survived a complete car wreck, a house burning down around it, a breakin at my Winnipeg apartment, miles of miles and motels. Rob got the sound of it here for sure. Hope you get to hear it Jean. Thanks to Chopper for the deal. Thanks also to Peter Boshart (sail on, buddy), Eric Collins, Walter & Brenda, Annie & Carl, Jeffra. ³Democracy is coming to the USA² - Leonard Cohen -- Doug McArthur Songwriter and Web Designer http://www3.sympatico.ca/dugimac/DMWEB.html - To unsubscribe: mail majordomo@icomm.ca with "unsubscribe maplepost" in the body (not the subject line) Need help? mail owner-maplepost@icomm.ca From bcopeland@cogeco.ca Sat Jun 8 05:05:58 2002 Date: Sat Jun 8 05:05:58 2002 From: Nancy J.

Having just about run out of superlatives for The Bill Hilly Band, I thought I'd attempt some semblance of a proper review. We had the good fortune to have them perform in Toronto last Sat. (June 1st) at The Acoustic Harvest Folk Club and then they played at Hugh's Room on Thurs. (June 6th). I've had a bit of time now to settle down and reflect. The best way for anyone to get a good idea of what their music is all about is, of course, to attend a live show, but failing that their two Cds are a good bet; the new CD, "All Day Every Day", has just come out on the acclaimed Borealis record label and is as close to a live performance as you can get. Highly recommended! The "Bills" are making a big name for themselves across Canada; here in Ontario, they're attracting quite a bit of attention and bringing new fans into the fold all the time. Once heard, the consensus is that one can never get enough of them and that one never wants the music to end. Fortunately, I've had the opportunity to hear them a number of times, so have been witness to their phenomenal growth - both in their artistic development and vision and in their increased popularity across Canada. At Acoustic Harvest, about three-quarters of our large audience had never heard of them before and came out in large part due to Greg Quill's eloquent article in the Star's "What's On" section. He hit it right on, with the comment about their superior arranging skills, playing a wide and diverse range of material "without ever sounding as if they're stretching their abilities for mere effect." They're having so much fun, first and foremost, but they've also polished their performance to a state of perfection and utter uniqueness, without seeming to do so. This group is an eclectic study in contrasts, surprising us continuously with their repetoire. Not only do they give us a rollicking good time with their obvious joy in and respect for both the music and each other but they also delight in uncovering some rare gems not often heard in the musical selections of most Canadian performers. They play with a virtuosic sense of style, interpretation, historical perspective and nuance that belies their young years (ages ranging from 19, 21, 23 to mid-thirties). Definition, subtlety, color, drama, form, boldness and many layers of voices are woven into every piece, note by note, with technical brilliance. They all have a superb command of their instruments, the music and their rapport with the audience. Their arrangements are sublime and some are unusual - I think the rendition of the traditional "Moonshiner" (taken from a bootleg Dylan) is the most beautiful I've ever heard. An excerpt from a Shostakovich piano concerto, "Shostakoverture" is given new life. There is a thoughtful blending of genres, with a gradual progression in the theme and content of the music, giving rise to a complete and cohesive whole. A Bill Hilly experience gives one the feeling of going somewhere, on a grand, exciting and thrilling adventure. Taking us on a journey round the world, we are treated to a magical array of tunes and songs - from polkas and Sicilian tarantellas, to bluegrass and war songs; to French, German, Ukrainian, Barbadian, Portuguese, Cuban, Spanish and Brazilian music etc. Images, sensations and an atmosphere of being in Europe are evoked and depicted with both a subtlety and a great flair of romantic and sensual clarity. The music is majestic and played with nobility and grace but also with a playfulness and sense of abandon. The musicians have the knack of getting to the very heart of a song and bringing out it's true essence. The band is at once both totally laid back and tight, even with a measure of impromptu ad libbing and improvisation, and there is never a moment's doubt that something interesting and captivating is coming round the corner. Astute, intricate, articulate, intelligent, passionate, filled with heart and soul, this music enriches us and gives us joy, serenity and fulfillment - a feeling of Life having been lived to the fullest. So call up Borealis for a CD (the first CD is equally excellent)- 1-877-530-4288, go to their website for their tour schedule: www.thebillhillyband.com and catch a show. They'll be at some of our fine Ontario folk festivals this summer (and out West in Winnipeg & Edmonton) - at Hillside, Perth, Blue Skies (sorry, sold out!), Ottawa (check the website for full details). Tonight they're at Mill Pond in Alliston! And..........the phenomenal jazz guitarist, Marc Atkinson ("Bill Mandolin") has his own jazz trio with Chris Frye ("Bill Guitar") providing that all important rhythm guitar. The Marc Atkinson Trio has just released a new, second CD - it's absolutely stunning folks! so watch for a Toronto appearance and in the meantime, check out the CDs.

I didn't notice any pointy tails or horns but, the one that calls himself Bill Guitar had one wicked grin on his face all evening. These guys are lucky though. They got more in exchange than a doughnut or a Dominion Curling championship. If there was no deal with Ol' Nick, which I doubt, then they must practice a lot. My wife and I made the journey into the land of potatoes and perpetual motion machines to fly non stop with the Bill Hilly Band. (The spelling error in the subject refers to the name on the tickets and in one of the local newspaper ads.) We knew what we were getting into but, I'm afraid very few others in the MillPond centre were quite prepared to be blown out the door across the parking lot and into the Boyne River. One other grizzled old fellow, fresh off his Alliss-Chalmers, may have been vaguely aware of what was about to happen since he had a fishing rod with him. I'm not going to sit here and spew anymore adjectives and superlatives. There aren't any more left in the English language. Just get out this summer and enjoy one of the west coasts most exciting exports since politics and Tim Lander.

His name is Oliver Schroer." -- Garnet Rogers Oliver Schroer is a unique fiddler composer who lives at the cutting edge of new acoustic music. His compositions are a headlong romp through a world rich in humour, heart, and unexpected resonance. Schroer's musical explorations have taken him far beyond his traditional Canadian roots into the realms of jazz, Scandinavian, Balkan, and Asian music. His life is an exploration of the power of a good melody. For many years now, Schroer has been prominent on the Canadian acoustic music scene, both as a leader of his own band, Stewed Tomatoes, and as supporting player par excellence. He has appeared at folk and jazz festivals across the country with a wide variety of top acts. He has performed with Stewed Tomatoes, James Keelaghan, Marc Jordan, George Fox, Stephen Fearing, Don Ross, The Afronubians, Loreena McKennitt, Valdy, Teresa Doyle, Thomas Handy, Jerry Alfred, and CBC's Stewart McLean/Vinyl Cafe Orchestra, to name but a few. Schroer's playing appears on over 75 albums of new traditional, acoustic, and popular music. Some recent recording highlights include album sessions with American songwriting legends Jimmy Webb and Barry Mann, Canadian female country supergroup Quartette, and Newfoundland's Great Big Sea. Schroer has produced six CDs of his own music, and is celebrating the release of his most recent offering - "Restless Urban Primitive" - a funky Eastern travelogue of solo violin, field recordings and special guests. Don't miss this Schroeresque-perience!

In 1981, she released her self-titled debut album, and in 1984, "No Borders Here", yielding the hit song, "Mimi On The Beach". Her 1985 album, "The Speckless Sky" brought Siberry her first music awards, as it reached Gold status in Canada and garnered two People’s Choice Awards for Album of the Year and Producer of the Year. In 1987, Siberry released the hauntingly beautiful and enigmatic "The Walking". In 1989, "Bound By The Beauty" brought a wry sense of humor and an acoustic simplicity to Siberry’s growing body of work. 1993’s "When I Was A Boy", became Siberry’s biggest commercial success, and included such hits as "Sail Across The Water" and "Temple". Celebrated as much by fellow artists as critics and fans, her involvement has long been sought for films and collaborations - her now classic 'Calling All Angels' duet with k.d. lang on this album appeared in Wim Wenders' film, Until The End Of The World, while her hopeful 'It Can't Rain All The Time' was written specifically for The Crow. 2000 saw the release of "Hush", a collection of traditional American and Celtic spirituals that have the ambiance of lullabies. She has just released a two-disc retrospective of songs selected from her 13 recordings, entitled "Love Is Everything". You won't want to go home without it!

No problem with posting the story. I just cut and pasted a raw, unedited version of it. So, keep an eye out for typos. Let me know what you guys are up to in the future. Paul M The list goes from Ella Fitzgerald to Bjork when the members of the trio Sirens talk about their musical influences. Saturday, the London-based group with the eclectic tastes plays Sarnia's Paddy Flaherty's Restaurant and Pub. "It's not typical," Donna Creighton said about the original music she records and performs alongside Jo-Ann Lawton and Amber Cunningham. "We're compared often to a cross between Manhattan Transfer and The Andrews Sisters, but with guitars." Sirens first came together about five years ago. Since then, it has released a pair of albums, including 1999's Smilin

. That record was picked up by the Canadian folk label Borealis. The band began when Lawton was putting together a Christmas show. "I had been bothering Jo-Ann to do some work with her for a couple of months," Creighton said. "She said, 'How about you come and try this concert.'" They got together and the first rehearsal went so well they decided to keep going. There were some personnel changes along the way, with Cunningham joining up most recently. "We're in the folk genre but it's more of a folk fusion because we do jazz, blues, swing, Celtic, all fused together," Creighton said. What fuses it all together, she added, are the group's densely-textured three-part harmony. Lawton grew up in Burlington and came to London to study visual arts at Fanshawe College. She plays guitar, bass and bodhran. Creighton, from Bancroft, studied English, drama and education at the University of Western Ontario. She plays guitar, recorder, tin whistle, bass, bodhran and percussion. Cunningham is a London native studying with the Royal Conservatory of Music. The variety of musical genres in the group came about naturally. "I grew up in a family where my mom was a classical pianist," Creighton said. "My brothers and sisters were all older than me and we had The Beatles on one floor, Led Zeppelin an another floor and then my dad (a folk music fan) he'd be listening to fiddle music and The Carter Family in the basement and my mom would be practicing Chopin." Lawton grew up listening to her parents 1940s musical soundtracks and the likes of Bing Crosby and Frank Sinatra. Her writing still reflects those influences, Creighton said. Cunningham, the youngest in the trio, listens to Bjork and Ani DeFranco but she's also a classically trained vocalist who likes Rogers and Hart. "So, she has a vast array of things coming at her," Creighton said. "We try to incorporate all of it, just because it's fun to do that." Earlier this year, the trio began work on new album. A trip to a northern cabin was arranged to write the songs and the group has been tinkering with them during its performances. Now, Creighton said, they are "madly writing grant proposals for funding, that sort of thing." The group has high praise for Borealis, the Same label Sarnia-based harmonica player Mike Stevens is on. "They're awesome," Creighton said. "It's unlike any other label in Canada." The people who run Borealis are musicians themselves so they understand the world that musicians live and work in, she said. Signing with a major label, on the other hand, means joining a large stable of other acts, according to Creighton. "The metaphor would be that they throw you all against the wall and see what sticks. You can end up in severe debt, owing them hundreds of thousands of dollars and never recovering." Saturday's is Siren's first performance in Sarnia. "We're quite excited," Creighton said. "We hear lots of great things about that particular pub."

All is well and yes I'm little. I lost 40 lbs this year on purpose., I'm back to my pre-pregnancy weight of 16 years ago and except for the cold I currently have am healthier than I've been in, oh about, 16 years. In dealing with all the trauma, I had to do something pro-active for me and that was what I chose to do. Ewan feels like he is married to a new woman and calls me the "racing version of his former wife". People have certainly noticed though most don't say anything. They just look at me like I have 3 heads with one eye each. Julia is doing remarkabley well. She has a job at the local ESSO station, is almost done Gr.10 and has developed a very positive outlook on life and keeping it. She is experiencing the trials of being a teen head on and talking all the time. She spent 2 weeks with my sister this spring while I was on tour and that was really good. She gained a different perspective on life from someone not so different from me, yet different...ya know. She says profound things that most teens never think of and is very open to other kids her age who are experiencing things that may lead them to take the low road. She'll talk to anyone about it. I still have moments of the "Oh my God" what now, but she is aware that it will take me longer to recover than her and doesn't leave me hanging for long about what's going on in her life. As for work, we have NO festivals this year and our new album is not folk either. So, I don't know what to call it exactly but, we're working on it anyway and Bill is excited to produce it. Now all we need is money. Hahahaha! (insert maniacal laughter). You'll meet Amber soon I hope. She's terrific and fun and fits in really well. Poor Sandy! Separation is hard, and men can be jerks, but there are good ones. I had to divorce 2 x before I got it right and I did get it right. And you yourself are all the defense your gender needs. She'll be fine but it will take a long time, especially if they are struggling over the kids. Shitty! If you're around this summer maybe we can actually get together and do dinner or something and include spouses and stuff. Maybe barbecue veggies and drink carbonated water. How yuppyish, but fun none the less. What are you doing the evening of June 28th? Got a gig or anything. Ewan and I will be on our way to my nieces dance recital in Oshawa and could stop in Guelph on the way. Possible?

Will every performer have to argue their case for exemption? Is it going to depend on the mood of whomever they deal with that day, to decide if a venue qualifies or not? Wouldn't it make things way simpler to identify specific qualifying venues or allow venues to plea for exemptions on a performer's behalf? My take on this is: While "bars, restaurants and similar establishments" may regularly hire performers, they will still open for business if no performers are scheduled to play. That defines the nature of their business. At the Nickelodeon and other volunteer-run clubs, the performer's presence is our only reason for opening the door. Yes we sell food and drink, but only prior to performances and during breaks, just like a performing arts centre. If the performer cancels at the very last minute, the doors don't open. Thus, I do not believe we can be considered a "similar establishment" under 186(g). Will my argument fly when one of our acts shows up at the border? cheers, Vic - To unsubscribe: mail majordomo@icomm.ca with "unsubscribe maplepost" in the body (not the subject line) Need help? mail owner-maplepost@icomm.ca From bcopeland@cogeco.ca Wed Jun 12 07:37:55 2002 Date: Wed Jun 12 07:37:55 2002 From: Nancy J.

HRDC validation is something bars and restaurants are required to get when hiring foreign acts. as i understand it, the idea behind it is to filter out those instances where the musical services to be rendered are secondary to some other activity - gambling, or dining, or boozing - and thus could readily be provided by a local canadian band. cultural institutions like concert halls & festivals are exempt from this extra step because there is no doubt that the performance is the primary focus - as vic says, if there's no music the doors don't open. when i worked at harbourfront this was called an "A08" exemption. i'd wager that if presenter is routinely applying for HRDC validation for foreign acts, he/she can expect to continue paying the work permit fee. if he/she has been bringing in foreign acts without having to get validation, then the work permit fee no longer applies. in harbourfront's case, the documents presented at the border - a copy of the executed contract, a letter of invitation - told the officials what they needed to know in terms of our HRDC status. of course, only your friendly neighbourhood canada employment counsellor will know for sure ;-) - To unsubscribe: mail majordomo@icomm.ca with "unsubscribe maplepost" in the body (not the subject line) Need help? mail owner-maplepost@icomm.ca From kish@dial.pipex.com Wed Jun 12 09:20:35 2002 Date: Wed Jun 12 09:20:35 2002 From: Kish kish@dial.pipex.com Subject: [mplpost] Rory McLeod, UK Singer-Songwriter Dates in Toronto and Guelph Ontario JUNE 29th + JULY 3rd 2002.

Rancho Relaxo , 300 College Street, Toronto club info line # 416-920-0366 FOLK ROOTS REVIEW of MOUTH TO MOUTH (October 2000) A dazzling double album by one of our greatest mercurial talents. It's almost too much to take in - 28 tracks, a veritable hurricane of ideas flooding at you from all directions amid a startling torrent of words, sounds and style gleaned from here, there and everywhere. All of which ultimately adds up to a highly individual talent and a richly entertaining album with a massive range of colours, most of them primary. There's ranting politics, touching sentiment, humour, anger, love and hate and there's blues, rock, rap, jazz, folk musical styles from various corners of the world. LIVE GIG REVIEWS FROM AROUND THE GLOBE!! "...eloquently expressed ideas are set to vibrant, dynamic music with bouncy rhythms, infectious riffs and nifty tunes. Mcleod transmitted a pure joy of music making..." 'St Louis Post-Dispatch'. USA. "Mcleod is one of the most energetic, most generous performers I've seen. " 'Doug Spencer' ABC Radio. Australia. Atavistic peoples music...something uncommon and most certainly an endangered species. You'll know Rory when you see him - above all don't miss him next time he's here. 'Molly McAnailly Burke, Hot Press'. Ireland. " Rory is a dynamic live performer - never still or silent, his shows radiate energy. All this dynamism does not obliterate his songs which are always thought provoking and well crafted. Get hold of one of his albums and come and see one of the folk circuit's greatest live performers." 'Venue magazine' Bristol. UK. "...he inspired both a standing ovation on the main stage and widespread enthusiasm at his many workshops. " 'The Ubyssey' Vancouver Folk Festival review. Canada. "He immediately won the hearts of people by playing a tune on his harmonica to a crying baby, who was so astounded that it stopped crying (temporarily)! For an encore he played 'Back to Donegal' at the request of the crowd which did not want to see him go" Mary Evans. Sidmouth Herald. " Like a human organ-grinder..." 'City Pages' Minneapolis. USA. "Rory Mcleod must be the musical equivalent of a six or seven ball juggler" 'The Guardian' - England " Rory Mcleod was another revelation...He also proved to be a risk taking performer leaving the stage during a harmonica piece to walk among the audience, completing the tune without the PA system! " 'Dirty Linen'. Womad Festival review, Toronto. "If you're up there God, then please look after Rompin' Rory, some of us down here need this boy more than breath, love and tears" Dick Barnes. UK. What the critics have said: Previews. "Expect the unexpected." "It is hard to pin down his unidentifiable and unpretentious style." "A singular and liberating performer. You can count on intimate, revealing, political and powerful music. Singing in a London accent with a rich, raw, voice, deep and resonant, sometimes spitting out images in rhythms and rhymes, then flying and swooping into long, clear falsettos." "Rorys' songs are catchy, poignant, celebrational, danceable, observant, incisive, witty, and passionate, his are songs about all kinds of people - richly coloured characters, i.e. his grandma, mum, (subjects taboo for the 'hip' generation) and about school friends, family, parting, traveling, love, despair and politics. Creating atmospheric stories using intimate, revealing and powerful poetry. " "He delivers his songs with such incredible verve and warmth, without resorting to sloganeering and clichés, but generating remarkable energy and depth to fill your soul." "Writing remarkably catchy songs, upbeat even when the message was at its darkest" ' Michael Smith, Drum Magazine Sydney' "His melodies are peppered with Flamenco, Rhumba, Blues, Celtic, Reggae and Calypso Rhythms, even a Waltz and Polka thrown in. Each song is very different from the next but each song is stamped with his own style." " You don't listen to Mcleod you travel with him" "The dance floor is usually packed. Rory might sing and dance for 3 hours or more, it's as if his life and our lives depended on it. He lives and breathes music."

Answer, the way I read it: Nothing. They're bars, and Hugh's Room is a restaurant. So every artist they bring in from the UK or the US has to pay to cross our border. And they will add the cost of this into their show budgets, and the audience will eventually pay for it. Of course, festivals have bars, concert halls have bars, and even Vic Bell's club has a bar (although they don't serve when the artist is on stage - nice one, Vic; get yer orders in now! ). Sometime ago I expressed the view that the change from the originally-proposed dropping of the border crossing fees had been engineered by the AFofM. One of their senior officers (one David Jandrisch) sent me a scurrilous e-mail letter, accusing me (and all other club bookers and/or promoters) of always seeking to underpay musicians so we could make more money (HAH!) - I wrote him back, but, of course, he's too been much too busy/ill-informed/unaware to respond. Like most union people, it is obvious that he has NO idea HOW negotiations with artists and promoters are conducted; I offered to explain it to him, but his silence since indicated that he's not really interested. When the Canadian branches of the AFofM lobbied the government to rescind the dropping of border fees, they were concerned that American musicians (who are, of course, their members!) would flood up here to earn our 64 cent dollars playing the bar circuit - all those Holiday Inns and Ramada Hotels which, of course, long stopped hiring musicians anyway - and put their Canadian members out of work. They also figured that since Canadian members have to p;ay to get into the US, American members should pay to get into Canada - presumably two wrongs add up to a right. By adopting this attitude, they took away a major tool American presenters could have used to get the American government to drop their outrageous sanctions against Canadian musicians working in the United States. But trust the AFofM; one of the most reactionary, unimaginative, and out of touch organizations you can imagine. Their bureacracy, who long ago atopped being working musicians and have cushy office jobs instead, gets it wrong every time!

The Cloud in Toronto uses the TRANZAC as a venue. We use the Main Hall and put on a concert. It is not the TRANZAC putting it on. I suppose we will have to go the validation route, however, HR Canada people as deemed us as putting on a cultural event in a concert setting (to quote an officer "Massey Hall has a bar") and the last few times have written letters stating we don't require validation. If the TRANZAC was putting it on then that would be a different matter. Hugh's could be in a similar position (the way I read it) - Richard is using the venue for the concert and while Hugh's would like the business, it is a concert venue that happens to serve food. It will come down to the HR interpretation. I'll have to contact HR here to get some clarification on how they are going to interpret the Cloud - I'll let people know once I get an answer - the people in Toronto have always been very helpful.

We are opening a new venue in a small tourist town this summer. We will be open every night. We have already booked several acts. None will be American, even though Cathryn has dual citizenship. It is a conscious response to the difficulties of Canadian entering the US. Will we fill the dates? Of course.

James added: > (snip) but I know a number of musicians who join ONLY because of the >union's good track record in getting border-crossing paperwork organized..my >local union rep admitted to me that this has become their most relevant >function.... This is a point I've made again and again; to drop border fees removes one of the most imporant raisons d'etre for being in the Union in the first place (yes, Union officials, I KNOW about pension plans and benefits and insurance and all that). And I suspect that THIS was the reason the AFofM pressured the government to maintain the status quo...then the American would never drop their demands for border crossing fees, and then, if successful, the Canadian locals would have nothing to do, and would lose membership. James is also, alas, right when he said that in these times of increasing paranoia in America, the ichances of making it easier to cross our "undefended" border are slim indeed. The idea of free trade is going by the board in an increasingly protectionist America, and in some areas - and this is one - we're following right along. I, too, am scared that American presenters just won't be bothered to hire Canadians - too much hassle, too many forms, too much bullshit. The hassle, the form-filling, and the bullshit that Canadian presenters have to put up with to present an American artist in Canada.

Hess lists@richardhess.com Subject: [mplpost] dual citizenship question Hi, Lynn, If you've got it, flaunt it! When I travel with my family (Canadian wife and two sons) to Canada, we bring six passports--three Canadian (my wife's and two sons') and three U.S. (mine and two sons'). We selectively show them at the border. I'm never hassled about anything entering Canada, the U.S. people generally want to see my wife's "green card" (which is plastic laminate and white). If you have two passports--use them. If you don't have two passports, and you are a dual citizen, my advice is to get two passports, but I'm not a lawyer. There MAY be tax issues involved with this as well. Talk to your CA/CPA. I assume if you have dual citizenship you also have both a Social Insurance Number and a Social Security Number. (my wife and I have both--the boys only have SSNs at this point but with their Cdn passports should have no trouble getting SINs when needed). Again you need to understand this in depth. You COULD download all the manuals (there are even special ones for musicians at the IRS Web site) from the IRS and RC...

At our last board meeting we decided we would try having a summer house concert in August because the Winnipeg trio who asked us is just so darn good! We'll keep you posted re: the date for The Wailin' Jennys August date in Red Rock. ******************************************** We had a successful planning session with 10 volunteers from Thunder Bay , Red Rock, Hurkett and Nipigon - for the Live From the Rock Folk Festival to be held August 8, 9 & 10th 2003. On Monday Brian Campbell and I will be making a presentation to the Red Rock Town Council and requesting that we be allowed to hold this festival at Pull-a-log Park at the waterfront in Red Rock. If so, we will have camping, a hand made village featuring the wares of artisans from across the region (and maybe country) a children's area and two stages with workshops going during the day and main stage concerts in the evenings. We'll keep you posted! ****************************************** Ken Hamm Blues Guitar Part 2: Thursday June 20th at Nip-Rock High School in Red Rock. This will be a continuation of the workshop Ken did in Red Rock last June. Call Brian Campbell at 807-886-2344 for more information. I inadvertently stated in my last email that the workshop would cost $15 when it should have been $20. Ken often charges $35 plus for these sessions so it's still a DEAL! SORRY FOR ANY INCONVENIENCE. ******************************************** And for those of you who want to listen to some great blues guitar...

Rancho Relaxo , 300 College Street, Toronto club info line # 416-920-0366 FOLK ROOTS REVIEW of MOUTH TO MOUTH (October 2000) A dazzling double album by one of our greatest mercurial talents. It's almost too much to take in - 28 tracks, a veritable hurricane of ideas flooding at you from all directions amid a startling torrent of words, sounds and style gleaned from here, there and everywhere. All of which ultimately adds up to a highly individual talent and a richly entertaining album with a massive range of colours, most of them primary. There's ranting politics, touching sentiment, humour, anger, love and hate and there's blues, rock, rap, jazz, folk musical styles from various corners of the world. LIVE GIG REVIEWS FROM AROUND THE GLOBE!! "...eloquently expressed ideas are set to vibrant, dynamic music with bouncy rhythms, infectious riffs and nifty tunes. Mcleod transmitted a pure joy of music making..." 'St Louis Post-Dispatch'. USA. "Mcleod is one of the most energetic, most generous performers I've seen. " 'Doug Spencer' ABC Radio. Australia. Atavistic peoples music...something uncommon and most certainly an endangered species. You'll know Rory when you see him - above all don't miss him next time he's here. 'Molly McAnailly Burke, Hot Press'. Ireland. " Rory is a dynamic live performer - never still or silent, his shows radiate energy. All this dynamism does not obliterate his songs which are always thought provoking and well crafted. Get hold of one of his albums and come and see one of the folk circuit's greatest live performers." 'Venue magazine' Bristol. UK. "...he inspired both a standing ovation on the main stage and widespread enthusiasm at his many workshops. " 'The Ubyssey' Vancouver Folk Festival review. Canada. "He immediately won the hearts of people by playing a tune on his harmonica to a crying baby, who was so astounded that it stopped crying (temporarily)! For an encore he played 'Back to Donegal' at the request of the crowd which did not want to see him go" Mary Evans. Sidmouth Herald. " Like a human organ-grinder..." 'City Pages' Minneapolis. USA. "Rory Mcleod must be the musical equivalent of a six or seven ball juggler" 'The Guardian' - England " Rory Mcleod was another revelation...He also proved to be a risk taking performer leaving the stage during a harmonica piece to walk among the audience, completing the tune without the PA system! " 'Dirty Linen'. Womad Festival review, Toronto. "If you're up there God, then please look after Rompin' Rory, some of us down here need this boy more than breath, love and tears" Dick Barnes. UK. What the critics have said: Previews. "Expect the unexpected." "It is hard to pin down his unidentifiable and unpretentious style." "A singular and liberating performer. You can count on intimate, revealing, political and powerful music. Singing in a London accent with a rich, raw, voice, deep and resonant, sometimes spitting out images in rhythms and rhymes, then flying and swooping into long, clear falsettos." "Rorys' songs are catchy, poignant, celebrational, danceable, observant, incisive, witty, and passionate, his are songs about all kinds of people - richly coloured characters, i.e. his grandma, mum, (subjects taboo for the 'hip' generation) and about school friends, family, parting, traveling, love, despair and politics. Creating atmospheric stories using intimate, revealing and powerful poetry. " "He delivers his songs with such incredible verve and warmth, without resorting to sloganeering and clichés, but generating remarkable energy and depth to fill your soul." "Writing remarkably catchy songs, upbeat even when the message was at its darkest" ' Michael Smith, Drum Magazine Sydney' "His melodies are peppered with Flamenco, Rhumba, Blues, Celtic, Reggae and Calypso Rhythms, even a Waltz and Polka thrown in. Each song is very different from the next but each song is stamped with his own style." " You don't listen to Mcleod you travel with him" "The dance floor is usually packed. Rory might sing and dance for 3 hours or more, it's as if his life and our lives depended on it. He lives and breathes music."

Hi Folks, Just a short note to remind you that the Summer edition of the Ontario Council of Folk Festivals'publication, Folk Prints, is in pre publication mode and is your brightest and best way to reach a market for your shameless self promotion. Whether you are an individual artist, a promoter, agent, presenter, entrepeneur, probably things I can't even spell...the cost of reaching such a specific and interested market is ridiculous! The numbers are so silly that I can't even write the information down without giggling, so you'll have to contact the OCFF's indefatigable Executive Director - Erin Benjamin (1 800 267-4298 or ocff@icomm.ca)- for pecuniary details. Even the call is free! Remember, the deadline is NOW. Time is flying. Keeping the music LIVE is a full time occupation and I only have half a life to give! Send your copy to Erin asahp* for inclusion.

With venues such as the TRANZAC allowing The Cloud to present concerts in their facilities, how will HR decide? What about all of the other festivals that use "bars" as their stages - mine own as an example? North By Northeast this year showcased 84 International or American bands. We are, by all definitions, a music festival. But just because we don't have a "mainstage", will we still have to endure this bureaucracy? What of festivals like the Downtown Jazz Festival, Stewart Park in Perth...I'm sure there are many in Canada. Will they be subject to the employment authorization because they showcase acts on stages that happen to be in bars? Methinks this is not over yet!

I tell you this because after three full plays, the first thing I now think of when I listen to this album is a curious behavioural trait exhibited by some of my fellow-British countrymen, who visit France for a short holiday, and “go native” with a vengeance. They come back writing “continental sevens”! This guy Watt must be the absolute antithesis of such characters. For here is a fellow who emigrated from Scotland to Canada in 1975, but who, now over a quarter of a century later, still sings in a spectacularly unadulterated Scots accent. More power to his elbow (or should that be his “vocal chords”?) I reckon. This is his fourth CD, and good enough to make me rather wish I had come across his previous three. Clearly, if they are anything like this one, that was my loss. His warm voice and capable backing musicians engage you from the start. The voice is quite similar to another Scot who, shortly before Watt, also left his native land in search of the New World. Eric Bogle. But the difference is that the Aussie vowel sounds have manifestly made inroads into Bogle’s diction, whereas Watt sounds like he has never been to London ENGLAND, let alone London ONTARIO. The album is largely a mixture of his interpretations of the contemporary and the traditional, with a few self-penned songs thrown in. It is fair to say that here, unlike with many CDs one reviews, no single track strikes one as being an obvious error of judgement. Yes it is true that I do not share his clear passion for that mildly pretentious Eagles’ favourite “Desperado”, but by golly, he really delivers it in fine style. As he does one of Dylan’s less-celebrated songs “Tonight I’ll Be Staying Here With You”. But the real moment of magic, is his version of Robert Burns’s “Westlin’ Winds”. It alone is worth the price of the CD. It is unforgettable, and here is for why. Now, I don’t know: maybe I have led a sheltered life. Perhaps Watt is tapping-into an ancient vocal tradition: but I promise you, I have never encountered it before. This is what he does with this most famous of Scottish songs: he slowly speaks the immortal words, and then maybe thirty seconds in, he SINGS a line-ending. Then he recites more of the words, and then again sings, but this time, a longer bit. And then it becomes ALL song. It is a truly PROFOUND experience for the listener. First, it is as if he is slowly reciting the words to let you examine the goods. He knows that these are majestic words, and I guess he ALSO knows that were he to sing them from the “top of the page”, many listeners new to Burns would sort of switch off, despite the fine melody. So what better, than to sedately roll them off his tongue? And then when the melodic bit is added (as I say, GRADUALLY, like a swimmer dipping first toe, then foot, into the Sea of Melody on a cold day) it is as if the WORDS TAKE FLIGHT!) And just like with a young bird leaving the nest, the first couple of attempts help one to see one’s potential, and the third go sees one soar off and defy gravity. Burns’s words genuinely SOAR towards the heavens. Whether Bobby Watt hit upon this idea himself, or he borrowed the technique from a favourite source singer, I know not. All I do know is that it is something that he would do well to incorporate into some more of his repertoire. And other singers too. Of course it does not work with anything less than sublimely good lyrics. With so much of what one hears today, this technique would fail dismally, since the words would not survive close inspection. But I close in thanking Bobby Watt for a very respectable album, and a genuine moment of epiphany.

Last year I hosted PondFilk I, a folk/filk weekend music retreat. It was so successful it completely changed my life, I met Douglas there. On the one year anniversary of PondFilk we are hosting PondFilk II and our Renaissance wedding :) The handfasting last weekend in Olympia WA was musically gifted by Echo's Children http://www.echoschildren.org/ and their earlier incarnation Eglentine. Saturday June 22nd as our horse carriage wends it's way to and from the park we'll be serenaded by Beth Morris and Callie Hills (founding members of Eglentine and half of Echo's Children). Can't think of a better way to start my new life. Reception to follow, then we wave goodbye to the folks that don't want to do music and the jam begins. Anyone in the Victoria area on June 22nd that would like to come by and jam is very welcome, Ren/SCA garb optional. On a slightly more professional note -- Wednesday July 10th, Eileen Laverty is performing at Pondside in Victoria. Reserve your seat early as she was a big hit last year when she played mainstage at Victoria Folk Music Society!

Bob Snider Toronto (& former Nova Scotian) singer-songwriter, Bob Snider, has been called "a living legend", "a talent not to be missed" and "author of some of the best Canadian songs of the decade". Bob's start came in 1986, busking on the street corners of Toronto, enjoying the audiences for his wry and often sardonic folk songs. By 1991, Bob had become a well-liked figure and respected songwriter on the local scene, and had released two independent cassettes, "You" & "Live At The Free Times Cafe". In 1995, Bob signed a recording contract with EMI, releasing "Caterwaul & Doggerel" to unanimous critical acclaim. That same year, he received two nominations for the East Coast Music Awards! Bob's songs have been covered by several artists; most notably "What An Idiot He Is" was a featured track on the debut double platinum international release "Hi, How Are You Today", by fiddler, Ashley MacIssac. He has appeared on many national, regional and local television programs, including CBC's "Rita & Friends", as well as Much Music and Country Music Television. Bob's been no stranger to Canadian radio either, with special features on CBC's "Swingin' On A Star", "Morningside", "Gabereau" and "Definitely Not The Opera". Hear him live, performing many gems and delighting us with his wry social commentary and great wit. - - - - - - - - - - - - Wendell Ferguson Wendell Ferguson's songwriting comes from unique perspective, and for several reasons. He has spent his entire adult life as a guitarist-for-hire for some of the best in the business. He has travelled the globe and accompanied a veritable who's who in both the country field (George Fox, The Dixie Chicks, Tommy Hunter) and the folk arena (Gordon Lightfoot, Quartette, James Keelaghan, Bob Snider, Cindy Church, Katherine Wheatley). Wendell started to find his own writer's voice back around '92 when he put together the contemporary band "Coda The West", and wrote or co-wrote most of the act's material. Five top 40 hits garnered him a Juno nomination in '95 and won him and 'Coda' the Canadian Country Music Association's "Band of the Year" for '94, '95, & '97. He has also won "Guitarist of the Year" for the last five years running. In 1999, Ferguson released his own CD, "I Pick Therefore I Jam" to rave reviews. The album was nominated in the C.C.M.A.'s "Vocal Collaboration of the Year" category for a duet with Prairie Oyster's Russell deCarle. It was also listed in RPM's Top 100 Albums of 1999 and Country Music News' "Best of the Year". Hear these great tunes (not to mention great tales) this Saturday night! - - - - - - - - - - - - Magoo Magoo has been writing songs and playing them in clubs, concerts and at festivals across the country since 1975. In the 1980's, working with a promoter in the US, he opened shows for Taj Mahal, Roger McGuinn, The Band, Joe Cocker and David Bromberg among others. He formed a rocking little band called the Nu Magoos, and enlisted the playing talents of one Kirk Elliott. In 1987, he and Kirk recorded "Sing a Song of Mother Goose", which sold around the world and hatched the family duo Kirk and Magoo. They subsequently recorded "We are the Dinosaurs" and "I Don't Want to Keep My Room Clean" for kids of all ages and began touring the Kirk and Magoo show. A live concert was produced as a television special. These recordings have become cult classics with families for their clever lyrics and diverse musicality and the journey continues... They launched "Mars Rocks!", and Magoo recently released "Shirt Pay", is a rootsy rockin', folk singin' festival in a box that manages to capture what it is he does. Hope to see you there!

I took a night off from promoting concerts and visited an old friend, Adrian Searle. It was to be a night off from work related activities; no music; no discussion of art funding. It did not work. Mose Scarlett, Jackie Washington & Ken Whiteley made an appearance. Adrian is a multi - award winning architectural photographer. So of course in visiting his home I also saw his studio and his work. When I first met Adrian I got to see his photo essay of Irish people. Some of the finest pictures of peoples' faces I have ever seen. This was what he did for fun. He uses those big cameras which give amazing detail. The difference between his large camera and a 35mm is akin to saying that both Don Ross and I play instrumental guitar. There we were in the studio when Adrian asked if I had seen the portrait he had taken of the above mentioned trio? He then pulled out a huge photograph, 20" x 24" that he had taken backstage in the greenroom of the Great Canadian Theatre Company (GCTC) as part of Acoustic Waves here in Ottawa in 1991. The three are posing in one of those wonderful poses smiles on their faces. Neither Mose, Jackie nor Ken have a copy of this photo (at least not yet).
