Hey, Hey, Hey!

 The latest KatMoon compilation has dropped! Songs and photos were captured during our June performance at Spirit Square Stage for Langley City's Community Day. Tons o' fun I tell you! Many thanks to Graham Bryan and Jimo Hatch for the excellent images. 

A Spirited Performance

On June 10th, 2023, we had the honor of performing at the Langley Community Day Celebration on the  Spirit Square Stage in Langley. What a rockin' show - 45 minutes of eclectica, with a green room and pro sound. Woot! The rain held off long enough to bring out the cheering crowds, and for the first time we were asked for an encore. In case you missed it, here is our poster, and a little video clip, courtesy of Jimo Hatch:

Here We Go Again!

We will be playing for an hour - hope you can join us!!

 

More photos....

Here are a few more images from our shoot. We now have a Facebook page - check it out!

Photo Session!

 A couple of days ago, Kat Moon had our first band photo session. It was strange not having a camera in my hands, but talented Tracy Gendron did a great job capturing the essence of our group. Here's one of the shots:

And There's More!

 Last week we played our first paid gig. Given that we've only been together since January, 2022, I think that's pretty cool. This outdoor show was for the City of Langley's Sounds of Summer Series, and we rocked it for an hour to a 70-strong audience. There was even dancing in the streets!

Check out the latest YouTubes: KatMoon performing Little Feat's 'Willin', and Poison's 'Every Rose Has Its Thorn'. Something for everyone, indeed!!!

KatMoon

And now for my latest adventure - a groovy little music group! KatMoon is our name, and we just wanna have fun. Members include David McGuire, lead vocals/rhythm guitar, Diane Gendron, bass/harmony vocals, David Johnson, lead guitar, and yours truly on harmony vocals. Oh, and our trusty Beat Buddy on drums - anyone know an awesome human drummer? Shoot me an email.... 

We have our very own YouTube channel and are busy working on music and performing. 

Check out a couple of our songs: 'White Bird', originally by It's A Beautiful Day, and Blake Shelton's 'Boys Round Here'. Both pieces were recently performed at Bez Arts Hub in Langley, with many more gigs on the way!

From Frying Pan to Fire

 To say I've been absent from this platform is quite an understatement. Life  REALLY got in the way. Now that the dust has settled it's clear I'm on a new path, revisiting a much loved area of discovery - MUSIC. I've always enjoyed singing and writing and lately have been exploring the wonderful world of production. Without further ado I introduce my original piece, 'Le Reve', a loop compilation of French poetry and the freeform guitar stylings of David S. Johnson. Enjoy!

Chihuli, Chiluli

 I recently had the honor of attending an exhibit by Master Glass Blower, Dale Chihuli. His work is extraordinary, both in scale and concept. The photos speak for themselves, but if you want to experience the excellence of Chihuli's work, there is no substitute for a gallery visit. You gotta go!!

Here are 2 recent shots that say 'winter' to me. We seem to be having a long one. Both pictures taken at the Glen.

Veneto Venezia

In May, 2019 I journeyed to Italy. Our primary purpose was to explore the Tuscany region, but our first stop was in Venice, which was my favorite by far. What words can describe Venice? It's the most beautiful city I've ever seen. Mysterious. Magical. Historical. Mythical. Multicolored, ancient buildings dipping and dripping into waterways. The eerie calm of the fetid canals. Venetian Prosecco, the best I've ever tasted. And the rain. The rain. The rain!

Toscana - Firenze

Our first Tuscan destination was Florence, Tuscany's capital. Florence is known as the Cradle of the Renaissance, with very good reason. Sadly I only visited for one day, so was unable to fully explore its magnificent offerings. But what I saw made me very thirsty for more.

Toscana - San Gimigniano and the Via Francigena

 Our first excursion took us to the historic hill town of San Gimigniano. We walked the iconic Via Francigena, following the centuries old route of pilgrims. The weather was perfect; the warm spring breezes complementing the breathtaking views. The town was like nothing I'd ever seen before, and the countryside was beyond words.

Toscana - Casino Di Terra

 Our home base was Fattoria Belvedere, an accommodation near the tiny village of Casino Di Terra. Although I do not usually promote here, this place is a wonderful destination, with easy access to the hill towns and glorious Tuscan countryside. While there I savored the surrounding landscape, and was rewarded again and again.
