Recording in Seattle!!!

Hey Everyone!

I am writing to you from Seattle, Washington, where I am recording my new EP, titled, "Seattle Sessions - Less is More." Just finished recording my first song for it with recording engineer Tony Fabris. Things are going really well so far. Think I have a great new EP in the works and am having a wonderful time working with Tony.

I was planning on recording my 5 song EP on Gabriola Island (one of the Gulf Islands) last week while I was visiting there but the recording engineer totally flaked out and never showed up! Never been more frustrated as I eagerly waited for the engineer to show up each day. I finally gave up on waiting for him after the seventh day of being promised that he would show up and living in conditions that were less than tolerable. It's a long story that is better shared in person and it's a serious doozy.

Just as I was thinking that I would have to put off my recording until after my three month tour was completed, I got an offer to head to Seattle to record with Tony Fabris. Bigger and better things always seem to come to those who are patient and to those who are willing to wait. Now I am super happy that things didn't pan out on Gabriola as I never would have had the opportunity to work with such a talented recording engineer like Tony and never would have been able to visit the super cool city of Seattle so soon. This place rocks!

On that note, I better get back to it. I'll get our new recordings up on MySpace as soon as they're ready...

TransCanada Fluteway Tour

Well it's official and it's exciting news. I will be embarking on my first TransCanada Fluteway Tour!

I am making my next solo singer-songwriter tour a truly Canadian adventure! It will take me all the way from beautiful Victoria to friendly Halifax and back to BC where I will be spending the upcoming winter months recording my full-length album.

Yup friends, I'll be spending lots of time on the Greyhound bus, travelling to most parts of Canada in between the two oceans from August 15 - November 13. It took lots of brainstorming and much encouragement from my music supporters to finally decide that I was ready to tour the country. I'm completely excited and thrilled about this opportunity. Can't wait to share my new tunes with all of you soon!

If you have venue ideas in your town/city, want to throw a fun house concert at your place or even would like to offer me a warm cozy bed to rest my head for the night, please get in touch. Every little bit helps.

I am also interested in pairing up with various local singer-songwriters in each city/town I visit so if you're interested, please get in touch with me: rozalindmacphail@gmail.com. I will be touring through Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, PEI, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta and British Columbia from August 15 - November 13 and am open to any ideas you throw my way.

All show dates and locations will be announced soon.

Smiles from Victoria,
