The Burning is the first single and was written during the ongoing pandemic and while a heat dome and heat wave ravaged British Columbia. The Burning was recorded during the searing and out of control wildfires that devastated our province. Using Dante's Inferno and his descension through hell as inspiration for the lyrics I ponder the times we are living in. Grateful to the Canada Council for the Arts and First People's Cultural Council for helping me create this body of work. Inspired by the need to save the ancient trees and to live sustainably, the lungs of the planet need our deep attention. I take you on journey through the forest filled with joy, wonder and movement in this album Songs For Trees. Produced by Adam Popowitz and these amazing musicians shared their incredible talent on the album: Adam Popowitz Lead guitar and bass, Elliot Polsky drums and percussion, Alice Fraser Keys, Huggybear Leonard blues harp, harmonica, ocarina and penny whistle.
