Post Folk Music Awards

December 2, 2007 - A great time had in Ontario

Wrapped up a great time in Ontario. Met a ton of great people and really enjoyed the Folk Music Awards. I heard a singer tonite that I had never heard before...a fellow by the name of Ron Hynes. He sang just an incredible song. It was one of those songs that had you from the first line, and while I probably didn't hear every single line, the whole song really moved me. The gang from the Duhks played a great show as well and it was great to see them play. I had a great conversation with Shelagh Rogers. She is truely a pleasure to be around and carries a great spirit about her.

Another artist to be on the lookout for is the young and very talented Kyrie Kristmanson. Her music is very well worth a listen. It's about 2 am here now and I'm supposed to head out on the plane tomorrow. Supposedly there's a good snow storm blowing in so hopefully we make it out. Talk soon. Ry.
