Looking forward to sharing my songs once again with the congregation of the lovely Northwood United church in Surrey on Sunday Nov 24.  I will be joined by Anna Lumiere on piano and Finn Manniche on cello.  This Vespers runs every Sunday from 4-5pm and is followed by a little reception with refreshments and goodies.

I don’t currently have a photo of Anna, Finn and I. So blessed to be surrounded by such fine musicians. Simon is sorry to miss our performance. It is a treat to work with the very talented Anna Lumiere once again. Sure to be a lovely Vespers for us all.

Hit the dance floor or come to witness some of the finest Grateful Dead musicians in the area. I sure love getting on stage with these fellas. The energy and intuitive play that happens on stage is infectious. The 100 advance tickets are close to sold out but there will be $15 tickets at the door! Try for Advance tickets HERE or just come on down to the Fairview Pub on Broadway in Vancouver. We hit the stage at 10pm for 2 long sets. FB event page HERE
