Hey Halifax!
Tune in to Breakfast Television at 8:40 on Thursday, November 5th to hear a little more about my east coast love story!
Don’t for get to share your love story or a favourite photo and you’ll get a free download of Where I Need to Be (The East Coast Love Song)! Share it…
Carmel Mikol and I are on the “Guess Who’s Driving?” Tour this month and would love to see you at one of our shows! See what we’re up to in the Guess Who’s Driving Tour Video Blog.
Wow Wow Wow!!!
What a month, what a summer, what a time….I just found out that I got a Music Nova Scotia award nomination for Folk Recording of the Year for my “Where I Need to Be” digital EP I put out in May!!!!!!!!! I’m so excited it’s ridiculous!!! Voting opens September.17th but it’s only open to Music Nova Scotia members! (It’s not much to become a member so check it out!! http://www.musicnovascotia.ca/) If you haven’t checked out the EP yet then you should!! It’s on iTunes and available at all of my shows!!
Alsoooo…I uploaded my “Where I Need to Be” video for the “iLove Nova Scotia” contest!!! To vote, and I hope you do because I reallllly need your help, please visit http://bit.ly/ilovens!!! You can vote as many times as you want, just reopen your browser!!!
Other news…well…there have been many setbacks with the recording of “Painting With Tides”, and after much thought, I’ve decided to officially release in Spring instead of this Fall. I still need to do a lot of work and if we miss the Fall deadline, then it’s Winter and I don’t think the feel for this album is very Winter at all!!!! It has spring written all over it!! For those of you who were really lookin’ forward to the album, I’m very sorry you have to wait another 8 months or so!! I hope you understand and once again I’m so sorry! For now…it’s just my EP that I am working on promoting, getting out there, and touring! And if you got the “All Access Pass” digital EP, which is only available at my shows, then you get all the exclusive monthly downloads, new every time, with live cuts and touring footage! I highly recommend these! I love sending them out every month and getting responses.
On other news still! The “Guess Who’s Driving Tour” hits New Brunswick, Quebec, and Ontario in November just after Music Nova Scotia Week in Yarmouth!! Dates for this tour will be coming soon!! I’m looking forward to seeing even more of Canada with Carmel and hitting the road once again! This means that me and Carmel will have only missed two provinces on our tour! Hopefully we get to those two very soon and then we’ll have cleared Canada!!
I’m also looking forward to attending so many events coming up in the exciting months ahead!!! I love Fall! Atlantic Film Festival, Wolfville Deep Roots Festival, Celtic Colours, Halifax Pop Explosion, and then Nova Scotia Music Week, which Carmel and I are showcasing on the Saturday!!! These are all killer festivals and you should check them out if you have a chance!!! Amazing music at all, guarunteed!!!
Well folks! Congrats to everyone who got Music Nova Scotia Award Nominations today!!! I wish you all the best of luck and thank you to Music Nova Scotia for all your support! ;P Also thank you to everyone who helped me out and supported me over these last two years and made the “Where I Need to Be” EP possible! Adam Lomas, Scott Ferguson, Krista Keough, Kurt Firla, Mickey Quase and Nova Scotia Department of Tourism, Culture, and Heritage, my family, my friends, and so many others…thank you!
Continue to support live music wherever you may be…it keeps the world goin’ round and a smile on our faces…
Lotsa love and yes…excitement!
Kim
