Lilac Wine

A nostalgic look back at childhood…memories of visits to my Acadian grandmother in the Acadian village of Kippens, NL. Honouring the memories of grandmothers everywhere…

This piece was created during a Fredericton Arts Alliance Residency. Guitar music composed and performed by Bryan McDaniel.

Strawberries

Sliding down with my shovel and pail
Off in the distance I see a whale
Time to see grandma 
to be nourished and fed

Bread and drizzled honey
Homemade bread and homemade cream
And strawberries

Morning awake, soft dreams fill my head
Perhaps today I will be fairy led
The smell of wild clover
Over and over, it is spread

The grass has grown a mile above my head
I can make it dance and never be seen
You’d think you watching inside of a dream
Now home to grandma in her strawberry bed.

Bread and drizzled honey
Homemade bread and homemade cream
And Strawberries

It’s so sweet that you want repeat
It’s so sweet that you want to repeat

Bread and drizzled honey
Homemade bread and homemade cream
And Strawberries

Bread and drizzled honey
Homemade bread and homemade cream
And Strawberries

This track, "Safe Space", is a collaborative effort conceived and developed by David. k. A. Spencer and cgmaness.

David took some bare bones riffs, beats, and bass from myself and transformed them into an entirely new galaxy of sounds. 
To my ears this sounds like the explosion of a Super Nova. 
David added synth, drums, bass, and guitar. Ultimately, David's added skills were the icing on the cake for this creation. Visual art also provided by David Spencer.
We hope you enjoy this track. ❤️🙏☀️

Safe Space (Collab w/ David. k. A. Spencer.)

The Eclectic Collective (EC) is a very loose band of musicians who collaborate over the internet and communicate via email only. I'm honoured to have worked with the EC on a few songs, and look forward to playing with them again soon! Hope you enjoy listening!
