I had a chance to sit down and chat with Canadian Country Music Icon Terri Clark last week on the heels of her big cross Canada tour announcement “Back To My Roots”. We had a chance to discuss what was going to be special about this tour and why she thought it was time for a tour like this. Terri also cut a few songs for our Mason Jar Sessions and tomorrow we will release the 1st tune. So be sure to check back tomorrow for a killer stripped down, acoustic version of one of Terri’s biggest hits!
Hangin’ with Chad Brownlee
Happy Friday!

Gerry Dee has London on the floor at Budweiser Gardens.
Canadian stand-up comedian and TV sitcom star, Gerry Dee, rolled his stand up tour into London’s Budweiser Gardens the other night for an intimate show in the RBC Theatre. For those who have never been to an RBC theatre show, you are missing out on a fabulous venue. Take one end of a hockey arena and throw a stage in it and you have the basics of a great venue where you feel like you’re sitting on the stage with the artist.

The, “Lights on the Horizon” tour, rolled into a rainy Thursday night in London, Ontario, on March 24th.
