“ There were a lot of good people. It was my first time there,” she continued adding most of the people there weren’t familiar with her music
“Some of them had heard it online. Detroit was very receptive,” she observed.

“ This is just a little solo tour I just threw together. I’ll be back with the band in the fall,” she continued adding she quit a job doing “heavy lifting” to hit the road again.

“ I hope to tour with that too. it’s a lot of fun,” she said.

 She is also part of an alt country band  the Ole Fashioned.

“ We don’t tour. We just play around Toronto. Everyone in the band is in so many other bands,” she continued.
“ We have a big local following and it is nice to play with them,” she said.
 But for now she is concentrating on the new album “ Make Your Own Bed.”

 While she has been selling the new CD off the stage since August, she has undertaken selling and distribution herself and has sold so many of them that she is almost ready to get them reproduced again.
“I’m going to have to get them reprinted soon and I’ve just been selling them off the stage,” she said adding people have been very receptive to her new adult alternative pop sound.

“It’s really popular in Europe,” she  continued adding she plans to tour Europe, though not soon.
She always enjoys playing Lethbridge.

 

“I like Lethbridge a lot,” she said adding she plays here as often as she can.

 She aid this show will be a solo performance.
“It’s more than just a girl and a piano. I’m playing piano, I’ll have my drum machine and my guitar and my stomp box. I’ve always got some new tricks,” she said.
 There is no cover for the show, which begins at 9 p.m., March 6 at the Owl Acoustic Lounge.
