Songwriter Comments

There is an old adage that a poet in another country is sublime; but a poet in the next room is a joke.

Having this knowledge, for many years I have felt that we Canadians, have enough truly wonderful songs about Texas and Tennessee and not enough about life in our own area.

About 13 years ago I had the glimmer of an idea that I could perhaps in some small way begin to change that...

So I wrote a few songs about Saskatchewan and Canada.....
