It Has Been a While….

Happy Summer All.

I know I haven’t been updating this page as much as I should have. It’s a bit of a summer project for me to try and get the whole website up to scratch, including the portfolio section, about me and others… But I’ve honestly been too busy working to report about working, so to speak. But I will make a conscience effort to do this every now and again. Until then, here’s some interesting tidbits…

I did a blog for Cantos, Canada’s Music Pavilion in Calgary. Here:

We also had a terrific night at The Barbican. Review:

And of course, we’re working with the Polaris again. Shortlist:
Polaris Music Prize Shortlist

And here are new bands we’re keen on:

NO GOLD

JON BRYANT

METZ

RESORTS

And finally, it looks like Canada’s copyright act will be looked at in Parliament. C-32 is on its way to being a topic on the house floor. That’s a positive.

More soon…
