… And that’s a wrap!

We would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to everyone who came together to support our Flotilla to Fight Cancer event on August 19th making it a record-breaking success!
Music can create a magical atmosphere where spirits shine and hope thrives and nothing could be a better example of this than Saturday’s Flotilla which raised $77,572 for the Maine Cancer Foundation!

To each and every individual, organization, sponsor, and partner who contributed their time, resources, and effort, we extend our deepest appreciation towards making this event a resounding success. “It takes a village” and you all rallied! Check out the photos.
Your support has enabled us to provide vital resources to the Maine Cancer Foundation so that they can continue their work to reduce the impact that cancer has on Maine patients and their families.
We are truly grateful and humbled.

He shot photos of the band at Flaherty’s Family Farm in Scarborough for the new website and for promotional purposes of all types.

What a fun day and a fantastic shoot. The proof is in the photos, which we all love. Great work, Stewart!

My good friend Jonathan Edwards really sings and plays his heart out. It is a rare privilege to record his talents. Jon stopped by today to re-record one of his classics for an advertising jingle.

(Incidentally, his signed hit record is framed, behind him on my studio wall, next to a signed Dan Fogelberg album, next to a signed copy of Schooner Fare’s, “Day of The Clipper”.)

I am truly blessed.

Writing a quick note from the local Mr. Bagel after jogging to and from my car… it’s 2 degrees out!

Thankfully, I had a little vacation in Nashville and Florida recently that helped recharge my sunshine batteries and offer some much-needed time off.

But, as you all know, I prefer to be out playing music for you above most every other thing. So, I was pretty excited this morning when I heard that Punxatawny Phil, the groundhog, had not seen his shadow, and Spring is on its way in a half-dozen weeks, give or take.

Before you know it, the snow will be receding in my lawn, giving way to bright flowers. We’ll be gassing up the van and loading the band up for our travels all over Creation.

Until then, I’ve got many local solo shows, happening weekly at many of my favorite spots to relax and enjoy, including the Sea Dog in South Portland. In fact, I’ll be there today, Friday Feb. 2nd, from 3pm – 5pm.

Stay warm, friends, and please stay in touch.
