First off, a huge thank you to everyone who came out to our anniversary circle. I had a lot of fun and all the soloists sounded amazing!

May’s theme is female singer-songwriters. I’ve been given a few suggestions, but we have plenty of room for more.

  • You’re So Vain – Carly Simon
  • River Road – Sylvia Tyson
  • You Were on My Mind – Sylvia Tyson

I’ve also had requests for Joni Mitchell, Sarah McLaughlin, Sarah Harmer, Melissa Etheridge, Jewel, Lisa Loeb and Indigo Girls. Are there any specific songs people want to play?

If you want to get a head start on June’s circle, we’re dusting off the pianola rolls for music from the 1920s.

April’s circle: Our 4th anniversary

I’m still sad I had to cancel March’s circle, but we’ll make up for it in April with our three new Beatles songs:

April is our fourth anniversary so, as has become tradition, we’ll flip the usual evening around and members of the group can share a song they’ve been working on or lead us in their favourite tune. After that, we’ll open up the floor to your suggestions.

See you in April!

No circle tonight

I’m sorry this is so last minute, but my street hasn’t been cleared and there is no way I can get out tonight. I hate to do this, but I’m going to have to cancel.

The store is still set up if anyone who makes it down wants to jam.

I will see you all in April for our fourth anniversary. I’ve already started working on a solo and I hope a few of you have, too.

Thank you for a great circle in February. I hope the love songs (and not-so-love songs) got you ready for Valentine’s Day.

March is going to be all about the Beatles. We’ve got quite a few Beatles songs in our collection already, but if you have any favourites you’d like to add, please send them my way.

Don’t forget, April is our anniversary and your chance to dazzle the rest of the group with a solo or group performance!

With windchills dipping into the minus 40s, here some music to remind that summer is just a few short months away. We have one new song and a few more from our song book.

And here are a few warm weather/summer songs we’ve played before:

November’s circle

There’s no theme this month so I’m going through a few of the suggestions that people have sent in. We played When I’m Sixty-Four a couple of months ago, but I’ve cleaned it up a bit and thought it should become part of our “official” songbook.

Next month we’ll dive into some Christmas music. We already have a few in the collection, but please send suggestions for new additions.

See you next week and Happy Halloween!
