In August of 2006 I saw a man by the name of Ray LaMontagne play his music in Toronto. I was front row centre. As soon as he came and belted out his first song, I was hooked. I had been playing music for a couple years prior, but this was the first time I knew I wanted to make music my life. Since then I have been writing and recording my songs hoping that they can mean as much to someone else as they mean to me. I have been playing many shows across Ontario in the past few years, and have traveled as far as Rhode Island to play my songs and have been getting great feedback. Its people like Ray LaMontagne, Bob Dylan, Joe Purdy, Alexi Murdoch, and Ryan Adams that really influence me. I listen to their music and realize just what a great song can do. Hopefully one day someone will listen to my songs and think the same great thoughts.
Ever wondered what to do in the event of a nuclear threat?
A while ago I found stuff that inspired me to make this film:
Living Under the Shadow of the Nuclear Umbrella
Both artistic (ensure you get the background music!) and educational, it primarily comprises official British government civil defence advice.
Though source materials are quite aged, much remains relevant today.

I'd love to come to your show but I'm actually playing Tuesday night in Toronto as well at the Central! I played at the Free Times Cafe a while ago and it's definitely a cool place, hope the show goes really well and I'll hopefully catch you soon :)
Brydan! Thank you so much for your kind words. I listened to your tunes and you are GREAT!! I read your bio area and it sounds like you are a humble, super-talented guy. If I am in town on the 10th, I will definitely make it to your show. Really, your sound is awesome. Good luck as you start touring and thanks again!
Mr. Smith, good to hear from you bro. I found out you were playing in Portsmouth the night after you played. I was so pissed that I missed it. I see you have quite a linup of gigs ahead, thats really awsome, congrats on that. I also want a copy of your cd immediately! Talk to you soon.
