I’ve now been married for a year. I’ve been meaning to share more from the wedding. I’ve already posted my wedding speech, but there are also the wonderful wedding photos taken by my aunt, a few photos I took myself during the day, and a video clip of Robyn Dell’Unto […]

Photo by Ed McAskill I’ve been in love with Robyn Dell’Unto from the moment I first heard her voice, and it’s been almost two years now since we became friends and she first introduced me as her secret weapon. This past Thursday, we had the opportunity to perform at the […]
If I’ve been MIA over the past month, it’s because of a huge concert I have coming up next weekend. I play double bass with the Hart House Chamber Strings (HHCS) and for the past three years, we’ve done a pops concert in March with independent songwriters. The concert was […]

I begrudgingly agree with Andrew that MySpace is still relevant. Facebook Musician Pages are much better, but the social aspect is not […]
Wow. When great talents collide… Kyle Weir has some amazing photos of Robyn Dell’Unto up on his site. No idea when they were taken, but they’re new to me! (He took photos at a gig I played with Robyn back in January too, and was kind enough to let me […]
