October 2016 Update

Hi All,

Well, another summer has come and gone. It was very good from a weather point of view. It rained a lot, but mainly at night. The days were sunny and warm!

Teaching slows down in the summer so I had a lot more time for recording and practising. Finished ‘The Pineapple Song’. Look for it here soon. Working on four other original tunes. Three are based on drum grooves while the fourth is based on a Guitar lick I have been messing around with.

The Gas Pump Jam was a little different this year. We had a few different people hosting as well as both myself and Warren. It’s always exciting to gig with other players and play some different material.

KickbacK is currently trying to get back on a rehearsal schedule. We have all been busy with other projects this year and haven’t had much time to get together.

Just finished the annual ‘Women of Song’ Breast Cancer fundraiser. It’s always fantastic to see Edmonton’s Blues and R&B community get together to support such a worthy cause. It’s also where you will see some of Edmonton’s most experienced and skilled singers and players. It was another rousing success!

That’s an update, talk to you again soon!
Cheers,
Ray
