This is a video clip of the Grade 2 class from Dawson City’s Robert Service School, dancing to me performing “Tongue n Groove” in their classroom. Had to share it with ya as it puts a smile on my face each and every time I watch it. They asked me to play this song three times and each time, they had a blast dancing. What a fun bunch of kids! : )

There’s nothing cooler than receiving an email that notifies you of your music being played on National radio.

Pat Carrabre on The Signal will be playing “Tongue n Groove” from Edgework this Sunday, April 19 between 10:00 p.m. and 10:30 p.m. on CBC Radio 2. Thanks CBC. You just put a big smile on my face. : )

I’ve got a new song up on my MySpace player, called, “We Could Be“. It was recorded at the Banff Centre, live off the floor by sound engineers, Will Howie and Maggie. Thanks to the talented musicians who laid down such beautiful parts in such a limited amount of time.

I recently sent this recording to apply for a Canada Arts Council recording grant. Keeping the fingers crossed. If I am successful, it will help to fund the new album, titled, It Is What It Is which I plan to start recording in Newfoundland this summer.

Now that I am settled in Dawson City, I thought I would post some memorable video clips from my travels.

This video clip was taken during Flotilla’s awesome show at the Banff Centre, in the Bentley Chamber Music Room (March 22, 2009, courtesy of Christina Green). It was such a beautiful show. So happy that I got take part in it. It was looking like it may not be able to perform when my car broke down in Calgary the night before, just after I dropped a friend off at the airport. Thanks to a close friend, I was able to get a lift back to Banff, only hours before the show was to begin….
