Happy Halloween everyone!  I hope you’re all ready for tomorrow night!  I guess if you’re not ready, you don’t have much time anymore!  


Things have been going really well lately.  So much has gone on in these last few months.


In September, I went to Winnipeg for the CCMA (Canadian Country Music Association) Awards.  I had a great time. Congratulations to my friends Stacey, Rob and Darren from Hey Romeo for taking home Top New Group Of The Year!!  You deserve it guys!


I just got back from a writing trip to Nashville. It was awesome!  I was very privileged to write with some super writers, such as Gil Grand, Patricia Conroy and some other writers. Thanks Gil for setting me up with some of the best in Nashville!

As for up-coming shows, I am so happy to say that I am going to be joining my amazing long time girlfriends from BLUSH at their Christmas show on November 30, 2008 at Festival Place in Sherwood Park (which also happens to be my birthday!).  So, please call and get your tickets ASAP, so you don’t miss out.  It will be a great opportunity to get us all into the Christmas spirit……and I just might share a few of the new songs I wrote!


That's all for now!  Exciting things are on the horizon for me in the near future. I will keep you updated every step of the way!

Hi Everyone!


Well, it's been awhile!  It seems like life goes by so fast that we sometimes forget to take care of the important things in life...like updating all my fans on what I've been up to!  Well, the summer is shaping up to be really fun!  Check out my tour page to see where I'll be singing, and make sure you drop by and say Hi!  I'm really looking forward to the Taste of Edmonton and the Festival of the Stars this year!  For those of you that have come out to a recent performance, you may have noticed that I sometimes like to do a cover of a Farmer's Daughter song.  They did a re-make of "Son of A Preacher" a couple of years back that I thought was just awesome, and I love to play it live!  Well, this year, Farmer's Daughter are going to be at the Festival of Stars for a reunion show! How exciting!  I can't wait to meet the girls! 


Other than that, I've been in the studio working away at some fresh new material that will hopefully be going out to radio in the next few months.  I think you'll all really love it!


See you all soon!

I was recently given the great honor of opening for Canadian Country Music legend Gary Fjellgaard. It was an amazing night!!! Myself, along with fellow Rising Star alumni Brett Kissel and Country Star Search winner Paul Chesters were all asked to be part of the opening of the show for Gary. Everyone did so well!! Paul was just amazing. He has a voice that rivals Vince Gill, and I was fortunate enough to do a duet with him. Because it was a rodeo crowd, I thought that it would be very appropriate and a lot of fun to do my own little tribute to some of my favorite classic country songs. One of those classics was my duet with Paul, which was the song "Crying" done by Roy Orbison and KD Lang. Wow!! It turned out so well! I was ecstatic about the whole experience. Being an up and coming artist in the music business, I was so lucky to have even been asked to open for such a legend.


I have to say a big thank you to Maryanne Gibson from Global Country for that amazing opportunity. The show was a great success, and thank you to everyone who came up after the show to say hi to me. I love to hear from all of you, and thank you for coming out and supporting my career. Thank you also to Gary. You were so gracious in allowing us up and comers to open your show. It was honor working with you and I hope we can work together again in the near future I'm looking forward to the new year.


Lots of changes have been made in my career over the past few months and I'm excited about the new direction that I am taking.


Happy Holidays everyone!!!

What a weekend! The Canadian Country Music Awards were just awesome! The Host Committee in Regina did such a great job. Hats off to all of you! I had such a great time seeing all of my music industry pals. I also had a showcase on Saturday, September 8th at the Pump Roadhouse. Thank you so much to Mark Smith from the Pump Roadhouse for putting the whole thing together. I'd also like to send out a HUGE thank you to my awesome band. We sounded great together!! Can't wait until the next time we can play together. Thanks to everyone who came out to support me. You can't imagine how much it means to me to see you there. We had a such a great crowd! My next really exciting show is going to be with CCMA Hall of Fame Inductee Gary Fjellgard at the Winspear Centre on November 6th with my fellow Rising Star Alumni Brett Kissel and 2007 Country Star Search Winner Paul Chesters. I had the chance to chat with Gary a bit during CCMA's and he's looking forward to this show just as much as I am! I can't wait....and we'll be pulling out a few suprises along the way as well. The only way to find out what those will be is to get your tickets at the Winspear Box office. Check out my TOUR page for more details!


See you soon!

Exciting things are in store!!


I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of my friends, family and fans for always being so supportive of my music, especially as I enter into this new phase of my career. 


As we head off in our separate directions, I would like to sincerely thank Dynasty Records for their support over the past 3 years.  I have gained much experience and expertise through our time together.  With this experience and expertise I will be able to grow as an artist and performer, and be better than ever!!  Thanks for everything!


My Manager, Maryanne Gibson and I are excited about our new path and some great upcoming shows, such as the Gary Fjellgaard show that is happening during the Canadian Finals Rodeo in Edmonton.  The show will be at the Winspear Centre on Tuesday, November 6th.  Myself, along with fellow Rising Star Alumni Brett Kissel and the New Country Star Search Winner, Paul Chesters will join Gary for a night of great country music!!  I am so honored to be sharing the stage with a Canadian Country Music Legend.  I can’t wait!!!!! 


Please keep checking back to the website to look for new concert dates, as we are working on some great stuff coming up in Edmonton, Viking, and Regina. 

I will be sure to keep in touch.  This is only the beginning……………
