You don't have to have a great voice to sing, just a distinctive one. But make sure you say the words clearly and tell a story.

The local music community here was dying for a place to record, so we started doing acoustic, folk and bluegrass and then did rock projects for other bands, as well as for my son Tal and my own work.

I don't think that bands that make it on their first album are as strong as bands that don't: there is nowhere to go but down.

My songs are like cheap Neil Young copies.

My love, growing up on the Prairies, was country music.

To add an AC outlet, for example, you just drill a circular hole in the wall, tap into the wiring, add the outlet and you're set. If you don't want it, pull it out and plaster over it with more earth to seal the hole.
