anywhere you'll find big skies..seeking simplicity, beauty and authenticity, the wide open prairies, Canada
I am a lover of all things beautiful... seeking simplicity and beauty which i believe exists all around. I love to sing and write both songs and poetry. I like to make many sounds with instruments...most that i've yet to learn to play. I have a CD out called "Gypsy As I Go" .. I do my part by giving new life to old objects. I take many pictures.

Saskatoon Solla sings


I can tell that I will love this place as soon as I walk through the door of the eclectic Cafe Solla in Saskatoon. It is now day three of our eight day tour and the third stop on the way. I drove down today to play with Lyn in her hometown. She has set up this show and the venue is perfect. We have an afternoon performance and the sun is streaming through the windows as we set up. I have heard of this coffee house before and know of friends that have been performed here. It is obvious why it is a popular choice. We have the charming side room for our use today and the chairs quickly fill up. And what funky chairs they are...made of reclaimed wood and iron, shaped like questions marks. The audience is full of friends and family who have come to give Lyn and I a proper send off. Even an old friend Matt, from my Yellowknife days is out to see the show. With the show in the mid afternoon, we both have the night off to relax and pack. We will have a busy Monday and will be in Moose Jaw tomorrow night...with big sunny skies all the way.

A musician friend from Prince Albert came out to the show to support us as well and take a few pictures. Thanks Gabe! You can check him out at:
