Dear Friends,
It's been a long time since I updated you on the new Gathering Sparks CD. We had planned on a spring release, but that has been delayed—for a VERY GOOD reason! Drum roll, please... We're excited to announce that our CD will be coming out with Borealis Records in October.
Borealis is a label near and dear to my heart since I was their first office manager, and several of my solo CDs were also released on Borealis. The label is run by some wonderful people who genuinely care about the music they release. Having their support will be a huge boost in helping us get our music out into the world, so we are beyond pleased to be working with them.
If you contributed to our crowdfunding campaign, you will receive your copies well before the fall. The album has been mastered, and we are finalizing the design (see below for a reveal of the cover & title) so we're getting close to having CDs in hand.
Our big CD release concerts will be in Toronto on October 3rd (Hugh's Room) and in Guelph on October 5th (Trinity United Church). We'd love to have you celebrate this milestone with us, so mark your calendars! We are planning additional release shows in Niagara, Kingston, London...TBA.
In the more immediate future, we are gearing up for our monthly Singalong Soirée in Toronto and Elora, coming up this weekend, there are still spots left in my summer ukulele classes in Haliburton, and the Ukulele Orchestra will be performing on May 11 here in Toronto.
That's the news for this month. I hope to cross paths with you sometime soon, but until then, keep singing!
