Hey all. Well, after a very VERY long time being creatively dormant (publicly anyway) some things have been happening around here. Last spring I went to Ireland with my Bestie Jim and something happened while I was there. I came home really keen to get creating again. Last August I applied for a micro grant form Sask Arts and was fortunate enough to actually get it. It’s been many years since I sharpened my grant pencil and I truly did not expect to be approved. Very nice surprise to say the least.
So this weekend I spent that grant money with the fine folks at Sask One Mic. We set up at Living Rhythm Drum studios and shot four videos live off the floor. Around one single microphone no less.
I did two solo songs and two with a rhythm section. Two of the tunes are solo arrangements of songs from my last album, Elemental, and the two with the band are unreleased (new?!) tunes. We shall be rolling these videos out in the coming weeks so keep an eye out. Feeling pretty excited about it all. If you’re reading this, I hope you are as well. More to come.
Talk soon,
Ross
