Loved your show in Wingate last night, especially your use of mixed media. Then, sharing the letter from Annie's granddaughter was a beautiful "rest of the story". Thanks for coming to this "W".

Spinning in Vancouver
So happy to have landed in Vancouver, at the beautiful Cultch, for a two-week run of the show. It’s spring here, full of cherry blossoms and flowers, we’ve borrowed ourselves some bicycles to ride around on, Vancouver is full of bike lanes, and the show is getting full houses and enthusiastic audiences, so…I’m a very [...]

Happy 2013
So it’s a brand new year again, as the century turns to it’s teen years…and January is a stay-at-home month, a hibernating-and-working-on-new-creation-month, a time to turn inside and stoke the fires and do some deep investigation into some ideas that have been brewing but haven’t had time to take form. #Idle No More is an [...]
SPIN on tour in Ontario
Hey November. We say it’s time to keep celebrating the mighty bicycle, even as the cold creeps into Ontario for another winter! Last week we threw our music bike in a van, and started this month of SPIN tour in Guelph at the River Run Centre; tomorrow we head to Kingston to the Grand Theatre [...]
