My Musical Journey


Small town New Brunswick, Canada was a breeding ground for folk songs written from the heart and from life. From an early age I found my love of music in hearing my Mother (Betty) singing around the house. The songs of the country greats were sung daily and you were sure to hear more heart of country music on the weekend at any local dances or socials.  These songs became the basis of my music today.  
​
My music comes from life.  The good, the bad and the hilarious!  Where we all have something in common.  I am pleased to share with you my original songs and will continue to promote the classic tunes from our past.
​
Thank you for taking this journey with me.  Enjoy.
