I’ve got 14 new songs recorded and they’re about 95 percent mixed at this point. It’s been a long process with people flying in and out of town and me working a few day jobs lately but this new recording should be finished and ready to release by the fall. I’m not known for trumpeting the work that I’ve done but in this case I feel more excited than I’ve ever been at the end of recording a record and I’m really proud of what we’ve done… hopefully you will like it too. I’ll get some mp3s posted on the myspace page as soon as we have it mastered!

In the mean time, it’s spring, I have half a dozen new songs to try out live and some friends have been kind enough to help book a few shows down east next month. Please have a look at the Shows page for details.

A few weeks ago I recorded a version of a song written by my old friend Jared Ozuk. Jared, who grew up in Transcona and moved all over the country, played in a number of under appreciated Canadian bands over the years and is maybe the best lyricist I’ve ever met. I recorded the song ‘Houses’ for a brand new compilation disc that Winnipeg community radio station, CKUW is releasing shortly. All local artists covering other locals who inspired their work.

I’ll be performing that song and maybe one or two of my own originals tonight at the CKUW fund drive kick-off party. First time playing in a few months… I can’t wait!! If you’re in town, be sure to drop by and help support local radio.

It’s been snowing here in Winnipeg this past few days… makes me feel like either hiding away with someone close and warm or shutting the whole world off and playing music. I’ve been at this a long time, it’s official… like a compulsion or one of those seasonal instincts, I held up in my room last night and wrote a new song: first days of winter always makes new music, every year since I was a kid. Some people see the beauty in everything, even the slush, the cold wind and the terror in the skies. I’m not sure I’m one of those people but I do see the rose faced women coming in from outside, all their clothes too heavy for early winter, the furnace on fresh and the heat pounding under ankle length coats and clean mittens. None of us have the rhythm yet, at least not outside. Stay in here and write, that’s what the wind on the walls outside are telling me.

As far as updates go for those of you been asking: the studio’s booked, the musicians are coming back to town, me, Mike and Ryan are practicing on Sunday and I’ve got 30 unreleased songs to weed through for the best 10 or 12. I’ll be playing a few shows here and there over the winter, just to keep from going crazy but mostly the doors are tight, the woods all cut and the music machine’s on full blast waiting for spring. See you all soon.

I’m finally getting back on the road! This time next month I’ll be in Atlantic Canada and Quebec trying out new songs in advance of a record I’ll be recording this summer. Lots of new songs… See the ’shows’ page for details and drop by www.myspace.com/macphersonband to hear a new song or two.
