I Love to Play Requests
One thing that I've always enjoyed doing is to wow people by playing them their favourite song by ear. Basically, how it works is I have this weird memory for melody and chord progressions (I can never remember lyrics tho!) and I just sit and play.
On Sunday at 2-ish I'm performing in the little town of Camden East (Bruce Cockburne lives in Camden East BTW), at a place called the "Bookstore Cafe." It's this really awesome two story stone building-- a former hotel I think. It's packed full of miscellaneous antique-ish curiosities like albums, paintings, toys, books, dishes, musical instruments, that kind of thing.
The front room has a nice place to sit down, where you can eat a butter tart, croissant, or bowl of homemade soup, and listen to live music.
I hope I can play your favourite song, so if you're coming, be sure to make a request. I'll also be pre-selling my Christmas CD which sounds absolutely amazing! You're going to love this collection of old carols!
See you there!
