Hello Everyone,

This morning I had the honour of joining many BC dignitaries in welcoming new Canadians as they received their citizenship. I am always proud to take part in this event on Canada Day and participate in the ceremony. On stage with me was the Honourable Lt. Governor of BC Stephen Point. It was nice to have an informal talk with his Honour and he spoke of a song that he had written and will be recorded soon. All proceeds from the sale of the disc will go to charity he and asked if I would be willing to sing on the recording. Who am I to refuse his Honour.

There is some news on the fourth album…. It’s taking a lot longer than I thought it would, but with good reason. With all the touring across Canada, along with the multiple trips to L.A. there has been little opportunity to get into the recording studio for any length of time. Even with all these distractions I am determined to make this the best recording yet and have it released in time for the planned fall tour of Ontario.

Right now I’m resting up in my hotel room for tomorrow’s show in Port Moody. I have to take it easy because I really sprained my ankle badly yesterday…ahem …heroically saving a baby from a dangerous fall.

Happy Canada Day ‘eh

Ken

I can’t believe that it has been a year since I was standing on the stage at Carnegie hall rehearsing with the New York pops symphony orchestra in preparation for my New York debut. In many ways so much has happened that it seems as though more time than just one calendar year has passed. There are so many memories that I certainly will carry with me forever of that wonderful night. To share all those memories here in this blog… well there just isn’t enough room on the screen to tell the full story of how life changing it really was for me, my career and my family. I want to thank all those who helped along the way to achieve this goal and also to let everyone know that the journey continues to get more interesting with every passing day.

I want to thank all those that contributed a non-perishable food item as well as donating to the the Mustard Seed Food Bank at my concert last evening. I’ve been told by Darlene MacDonald the assistant director of the food bank that all those donations added up to a whopping 2,617 lbs of food! That is truly amazing thank you all so much. Way to go Victoria!
Please tell all your friends and relatives who might be interested in attending my Christmas concerts in Nanaimo on the 19th and 20th of December that we will be collecting food and donations on behalf of the Loaves and Fishes food bank at the Port theatre.

I have just run out of my debut CD On the street where you live … however there are still a few copies available from Bullfrogmusic.com Just click the link to the Bullfrog music site instead of ordering the discs from PayPal. I want to let you all know that this shortage is temporary and we will have many more copies in stock very soon.

All the best

Ken
