So people seemed to like what was suggested last week for my inaugural Barn Burners… Well it’s week #2 and boy do I have a couple really strong offerings this week.
Blue Rodeo @ Bud Gardens…
When given the opportunity to shoot photos and review a Blue Rodeo show recently in London ON, I couldn’t turn down the chance to catch these Canadian music icons in action. I have been a fan of Blue Rodeo since I was a child, growing up with their folk rock sound that so many recognize when heard.
Chad Brownlee – Mason Jar Session – Hearts On Fire
Last week we had a chance to sit down and chat with one of Canada’s top male country artists, Chad Brownlee. Stay tuned for that interview in the coming weeks. But, we also had a chance to have Chad do a couple songs for our Mason Jar Sessions an Exclusive for Sound Check. Here is Chad’s performance of his current Top 10 single Hearts On Fire. And don’t forget to request this at your local radio station! If they aren’t playing this one you need a new station! We also want to thank Boots and Bourbon for hosting this one, greatly appreciated.
Phil Vassar Dominates Medina Event Center Show
Phil Vassar came ready to entertain at the Medina Event Center in Minnesota on Friday night. Minnesota was one of the stops on his cross-country “American Soul” tour.
Hangin’ with Lindsay Ell
So a couple weeks back I had the chance to sit with Canadian born, Nashville living Lindsay Ell just before she kicked off the CMT Women of Country tour in Orillia. We had a lot to talk about so here it is. And huge thanks to Lindsay for taking the time for both a killer Mason Jar Session and fantastic hang.

Say My Name Canada – Aurora
Things really got hot in Aurora, Ontario Thursday Feb 4th. It was wall to wall people and great music as I had the pleasure of attending a very special community centered event. This was the launch of the Say My Name Canada 2016 campaign at Aw Shucks Seafood Bar and Bistro.
Runaway Angel – My Someday
The ladies of Runaway Angel have a new video for a great song.. My Someday that hit your screens today! If you’re not familiar who Runaway Angel is they are one heck of a trio from Ontario that know how to light up the stage. We had a chance to catch them this year in Lucknow and we loved their set! So watch this video and let us know what you think. Enjoy!

Abby Stewart – I’m Still Faster – Official Music Video
We talk a lot about Abby Stewart around here it’s true but there’s a reason for that. This kid has got some mad talent and her latest music video, for her single “I’m Still Faster” off of her Firsts EP, which came out earlier this week is more evidence of just that. The video is set at Brockville Ontario Speedway which is mere minutes away from our home office in Prescott, Ontario.
Powerhouse performances cap incredible weekend at Spencerville Stampede!
The sun had returned and the stands were packed for the third and final day of the rodeo by the time I arrived at the grounds for the closing day of the 4th annual Spencerville Stampede. Out of all three days of music we had assembled for the weekend Sunday’s lineup was my favourite as it was a fresh lineup for me.
