It’s been a while. Sometimes I wonder if blogs are even a thing anymore…
The last blog I wrote and didn’t post was a tribute to the legendary producer Keith Olsen who I had the pleasure of working with on my album Hidden Power. I’ll post it soon.
When I worked with Keith, I learned a lot…….
I
was 16 the first time I stepped into a real recording studio with an isolation
booth, the insulated doors and the thick glass separating the Producer and
engineer from the musicians. My sister’s friends’ Music Producer buddy owned it.
I was in Calgary, where it was located, for a school band trip, and I’d skipped out on the……
I posted this on Facebook the other
day…
Well, Musey never ceases to surprise
me. I’ve been ignoring her for far too long and sometimes when that happens,
she turns her back and I have to beg and plead just to get a decent line or
word from her.
She must have missed me as much as I
missed her.
I……
So you wanna be a Rock/Country/Rap/Pop Star huh?
Singers…performers…musicians.
We make it look easy.
American Idol and The Voice make things look soooo easy.
(No, I don’t watch those shows. That’s another blog in itself.)

I hate challenges on Facebook.
You know the ones like: post this for however many days and blah blah blah…

But as opinionated as I can be, I can still have an open mind (I know, hard to believe), especially when it comes to……
I had just turned 15 when I joined my first band. I remember that day clearly. It was what Dr. Phil would call: A Defining Moment.
I was in the choir room at our school when our teacher brought in Two (long haired) Dudes along with two students from my school. One of the students, skinny……
Less than 24 hours after the last day of my extended work term, my significant other and I packed up our dog Scarlett, our bikes and drove to Sedona.
After 8 months of working at BC Wildfire Service during what was historically our worst fire season in history, I needed time to regenerate.
Most people like to……
At the end of last month, I didn’t like how I was operating.
I was stagnating and knew I needed to do something about it.
The solution? The 7 Day Comfort Zone challenge. My friend and support coach Jaime was going out of her own comfort zone to put her first course together, so being the……
We all had (or still have) those friends.
You know, the ones we hang out with who usually run us down a path that we don’t want to go, or in that moment of clarity, we know we shouldn’t (but sometimes follow anyway).
As a singer there are several “friends” I learned that I just didn’t need……
