A true and deep performer with the most immense energy I've ever seen over a 3 plus hour show. We can only hope to strive towards such belief in the intensity of language and song to transcend all.

Just showing you all my most recent collection of poems out this year from Freehand Books. It's about the experience of leaving Vancouver to buy an affordable 1905 home in Edmonton and the process of learning new ways of living, gardening and inhabiting community :)
