Pharrell Williams – Happy

December 2, 2013 by Tracey 4 Comments

Some people love to get their jingle-on the minute they stash their Halloween accoutrement away for the year, somewhere around November 1st. This is entirely too early for me, mostly because my birthday is November 24th, and I just don't like to mix my birthday shenanigans with the candy cane … [Read more...]

Is it too early for Christmas Music? Bah! But this…

November 21, 2013 by Sonya 2 Comments

I was at the dentist the other day and wanted to poke my eyes out. Sorry Miss Hygeniest, it's not you but it's the CHRISTMAS MUSIC that was playing on the radio over the speaker system while you were polishing my teeth with that gritty minty stuff. Oy! I'm not having a BAH-HUMBUG moment, but … [Read more...]

Band of Brothers

November 4, 2013 by Christine 2 Comments

One of the things that Campbell was most excited about as he entered grade 7 was learning to play an instrument other than the recorder or ukulele. He had his heart set on the alto saxophone. Last Friday he brought one home. I Instagrammed a video of Cam playing Hot Cross Buns and my poor dog … [Read more...]

Is your kid a rock star?

October 25, 2013 by Ryan 1 Comment

There is always music going on in my house. When you marry a Cape Bretoner that sort of thing tends to happen. I always heard about “Kitchen Parties” and now we have one every weekend. I gotta say, I love it. It typically gets started when my wife is on the fiddle and I’m on the booze. Fortunately, … [Read more...]

Arcade Fire – Reflektor

September 10, 2013 by Tracey Leave a Comment

Oh my, Arcade Fire - you knock me out, again and again... I love a catchy tune as much as the next person - pop is pop, dance music is excellent... always. But when artists like these make music all disco and (sometimes) French-ish and wonderful, I can't help but swoon. If you didn't know, the … [Read more...]
