Sheer poetry from a captivating singer-songwriter

This captivating singer-songwriter can say so much in a two or three-minute song. The poetry of his writing can tackle subjects as tragic as the 9/11 attacks (“Grim Cathedral”) and as light as a pretty girl’s looks (“Ankle Tattoo”) with equal perception and clarity. This Scottish-born Canadian will perform with Mark Westberg as accompanying guitarist, so that every ounce of his energy and concentration goes into delivering the short, tight but poignant messages in his lilting repertoire.
