Headed up to the Cameron House to see Lake Forest.

The music is more folky ambient sound.
It was just Will on the lovely stage of the Cameron House.

Music Singles Chart #88 (Christmas 2011 Edition)

Merry Christmas everyone!!
This year Christmas has fallen on a Sunday.
This week is special since the Top 10 is all Christmas/Holiday themed songs.
So if you were wanting to check out the current singles don’t worry some of the songs from chart #87 would re-enter next week.
This year Montreal’s Belgrave has the Christmas #1 in my singles chart.
Trying to make this all Canadian with two non-Canadian acts in the Top 10.
Yes there are two acts that covered the same song but I wanted to be diverse.
Some songs are featured in the free compilation Ho! Ho! Ho! Canada III.
Wishing all the best of the holidays!
Check it out!

The Toronto music scene works in crazy and closely knit ways.
This is the case for Shawn Clarke.
It’s one of those blink and you miss kind of things when you see a musician/band live at shows.
Looking through the photos that I’ve taken, I was surprised to capture Shawn in other bands he sometimes or used to play.
So why not check out what his music.
