Good Watermelon
...is finished. My new album was recorded in my hometown of Montreal this past spring. We performed the songs live in the studio to 2-track analog tape. Lots of exciting moments. I can't wait for you all to hear it! More news on the release to come soon. In the meantime, enjoy the photos from the sessions and 'We Should Dance' (music page).
