DREAMS DO COME TRUE

Playing Toronto's Ryman, finally.  If any of us had one, this would have been on our bucket list. The Galleria Mall is open one night only for this Longwinter Special.  Should be spectacular.  Heard the acoustics of the tiled flours are impeccable.


Tickets are almost sold out but apparently you can show up to the show too... who knows?  Not us!

TURF

TORONTO We are playing Lee's Palace on Thursday July 4 (that's it, next thursday) as part of the Toronto Urban Roots Festival special late night club shows.  We'll be playing an hour long set, opening for the Barr Brothers.  On at 9:30, so this is it, all you early sleepers, this is it.

YOU CAN BUY TICKETS IN ADVANCE HERE FOR $20.


Go West but then come back

Had a deli of a tour out west.  Saw a lot of skies, a lot of guys, mostly friends, some very generous meals from some very generous festivals (MOSO, SLED) and squatted our Edmonton Dad's house for many days.  Had to give Vancouver and Victoria the old Heave Ho off the tour route, due to the hydrological system coming down hard and unruly on southern Alberta.   Played our set for Sled Island at the Ship n' Anchor, and then got the old Heave Ho ourselves.   Woke up and drove East with the people of Siksika First Nation and Calgary on our minds and a gratitude to all the kind people along the way.
