News: I'm beyond disappointed to announce that I have had to cancel tonight's performance in Fredericton, NB at @shiveringsongs. This is a festival I've wanted to play for a long time, but unfortunately one of the nastiest coughs I've ever had has stolen away my voice and I simply can't perform. Thanks to all of the organizers for their understanding, and for putting on such a wonderful event. Until next time. -A

Huge thanks to everyone who helped make last night's live taping of East Coast Music Hour - CBC Radio 'The Story and The Song' simply incredible. To my fellow artists, @oldmanluedecke Man Luedecke, @iryancook, @orangeterra, it was a joy to hear your stories and watch your amazing performances. To the exceedingly talented CBC House Band (Owen Lee, Jamie Gatti, and JR Smith), it was my honour performing with you. To the fans who packed the house on a Tuesday night, thank you for being you. You made us all feel so welcome. And finally, to Bill Roach, Jeff Reilly and the entire @cbc_eastcoast team, thank you from the bottom of my heart for supporting and believing in original, local music. None of us would be where we are without the support of great folks like you. Until next time. -A

Finding my way back into focus.

The past few months I've been hiding myself away, writing new songs and figuring out what's next. Sometimes I felt like I was starting to disappear.
These new songs have my whole heart. I'm so proud of them. And admittedly, I'm still searching for a few more. But I know they will come. And when they do, I can't wait for all of you to hear them.
Until then, I promise I'll keep you all more up to date on what's going on in my world. -A
