View Album Lyrics

I have been playing with the band The Cultivators for almost ten years. When I decided to self-produce this third album I wanted to try and capture the folk/country rock sound that we have been performing throughout the Cariboo all these years. We recorded this album of songs, written over the past eight, here in Quesnel BC at Outer Rim Records in the fall of 2002 and the winter of 2003.

Producer: Murray Boal

After the good response I got from my first album, I assembled mostly the same crew of musicians and engineers and recorded this album (digitally this time) at Phantom Studio in Vancouver BC over a series of weekends in May and June of 1995. The album is once again a collection of songs mostly about people and places here in this colourful Cariboo region.

In 1990 my old friend, fiddler/violinist, Tom Neville suggested we record some of my old songs that we had played ten years earlier with our folk/country band Binder Twine. We received a FACTOR demo recording grant and eventually recorded this album of old and new tunes in a three-day marathon session at Blue Wave Studio, Vancouver BC in April 1993. I re-released it on CD in 1997.
