hello friends, fans, foe and lovers,
it's been an insane month. i curated "official denial: the art of the apology" a show in kamloops, bc, at arnica artist run centre. it features the art of Adrian Stimson, Cease Wyss, Bracken Hanuse Corlett, and Tania Willard. it runs until sept 15.
then i was in Ottawa, Ontario for about 10 days. give or take.
then i programmed the Nkemcin: Voices of the Valley festival with the awesome Nacoma George of Crazy Cutz records and it kicked mighty ass. totally fun day/evening with Niska Napoleon, Garrett Stevens, Blackout Artists and Skookum Soundsystem. Graham How rocked the sound like a professional and it was all sponsored by the Cooksferry Indian Band, big shout out to David Walkem, not too mention the staff and Council of the band for helping making it happen!
then i was on Galiano Island at the Gulf Islands Film and Television School, or G.I.F.T.S helping out with 5 films in 6 days. i met great new friends and had an amazing time. i love that place.
and now i'm recording 8 new songs, making new art, and preparing for a new workshop series with the Arbor Collective in Kamloops as well as plotting next years activities and events.
plus i'm on my own, my own place and i'm fucking stoked and happy as all can be about it.
which is probably why i'm firing on all cylinders again.
anyway, i'll be posting a shitload of photos and posters accordingly.
peace out y'all, and thanks for coming.
cb
