The Bombadils

Working on details for an Edmonton launch party in August, stay tuned. ❤️
I sang this song at grade 12 grad with some friends, as an Edmonton kid in love with music from Atlantic Canada. I never expected that the next time I'd sing it would be 19 years later, as a Haligonian, at a rally protesting arts budget cuts (and so many more cuts that affect important community programs). 💔 It was beautiful to hear everyone sing together - let's keep going! Come to the rally at Province House tomorrow, March 10th, at noon. If you haven't yet, please write your MLA, especially if you're in a PC district, and invite your neighbours to as well! NS Arts Coalition website has helpful guidance if needed.

🎹 Terra Spencer and 🎤 Stewart Legere - it was a privilege to be up there with you!
Thank you 🎥 Sean MacGillivray for this video and for being an awesome sound tech amidst the chaos.
All my love to Luke Fraser - who was holding down the fort and doing essential childcare activism, making sure the wee one could have a quiet place to nap while I went and sang some high notes. 💕
