12 Songs for Your Playlist - December 22, 2012: The Gordie Sampson Songcamp edition
Each week, I recommend songs from Atlantic Canadian artists for your music playlist. Most are new songs. The artists are listed in alphabetical order. Clink on a the date to go to my CBC Music playlist for that week. You can listen to the songs there. While there look for some other songs by those artists. Listen, enjoy and then, if you can, support the artists by buying their music or going to see them live.
This week, the playlist consists of alumni and leaders from the Gordie Sampson Songcamp. A number of the performers I have watched this past year are alumni from that songcamp.
Gordie, from beautiful Big Pond, Cape Breton, has won numerous music awards, including a Grammy for "Jesus Takes The Wheel". For the past three years, Gordie has hosted a week long song writing camp for young musicians. Steve MacDougall (Slowcoaster) has been a leader at the camp. Carleton Stone has graduated from a participant to a leader.
The Songcamp is "a way to nurture young songwriters from across Nova Scotia, give them access to knowledge and help them develop tools that will benefit their writing careers".
The results, as you can hear on the playlist below, are amazing.

Shows This Week - December 12 - 20, 2012
Four great shows in 8 days. Although every show was different, I thoroughly enjoyed each one. Here is a brief recap. Many thanks to those allowing me to use their photos.
Rose Cousins with Jennah Barry at the Carleton (Dec. 12)
Rose Cousins played 3 sold out shows at The Carleton. Rose has a beautiful voice and charming (read: funny) stage presence. On this night she was joined on-stage by some fabulously talented people: Stuart Legere, Don Brownrigg, Jennah Barry, Daniel Ledwell and Jenn Grant.
Opening the evening was the lovely Jennah Barry, who recently released her debut CD "Young Men".
Jenny MacDonald at the Economy Shoe Shop (Dec. 14)
Jenny MacDonald's solo performance at the Economy Shoe Shop made me want to invite her over for our 1st annual Christmas family jam.
The venue is not a listening room, but Jenny still made it quite enjoyable and relaxing for listening to her music. Jenny's guitar playing and songwriting shone through in the acoustic renditions of her songs.
For some of her songs, Jenny was joined on-stage by her younger sister. They appeared to be having a great time singing together and complimented each other nicely.
We had a great time.
Meaghan Smith at the Spatz Theatre (Dec. 16)
The first Christmas album I played this year was Meaghan Smith's "It Snowed". Then I played it again, and again, and again...
Meaghan's Christmas show was wonderful. She is a great singer and is remarkably funny. In Halifax, she was joined onstage by a full band and previewed some excellent new songs from her upcoming album.
Breagh MacKinnon, Carleton Stone and Molly Thomason at the Carleton (Dec. 20)
Three of this regions best young musicians put on a marvellous show to a packed house at the Carleton. They played some familiar songs and some new ones; and were joined on-stage by their friend Dylan Guthro.
Grassmarket CD Release Review:
I have a draft review of the Grassmarket CD Release at the Company House (Nov. 24) that I hope to eventually finish. That was an awesome show.

Grow Your Music Library For Free - The Legal and Ethical Way
Want to add to your music library, but not ready to commit to purchasing the full album yet. Here is a solution that is both legal and ethical.
Many artists offer free music to download from their website. Most will provide a free song, EP, or album if you sign up to their mailing list or newsletter. I have found that this is a great way to become familiar with an artist's music before you purchase the album or go see a concert. More often than not, the free download has led me to purchasing something else by the artist. In addition, being on the mailing list provides its own benefits, like advance ticket information.
Below is a list of musicians offering free music on their website right now (these may change so I will try to keep it current). I have listed the artist and the available download. Clink on the artist name to go to their website.

Meaghan Smith Brings Her Holiday Show To Halifax On Dec. 16
 |
| photo from meaghansmith.com |
Christmas in Halifax begins on December 16th. That's when the silken voiced Meaghan Smith brings her Holiday Show to the Spatz Theatre.
Meaghan, who grew up in London, Ontario, began her music career in Halifax. Her first album, The Cricket's Orchestra won Best Pop Recording of the Year at the 2011 East Coast Music Awards, and Meaghan won the 2011 Juno Award for Best New Artist.
Later that year, Meaghan released It Snowed, a marvellous Christmas album featuring a mix of holiday favourites and originals. It Snowed quickly became my all-time favourite Christmas album. For the second December now, the songs play over and over in our car as the kids sing along. While Meaghan's versions of the holiday favourites are beautiful and refreshing, it is the originals on this album that really shine. "Breakable" is a happy, little love song with a warning that the heart must be treated with care. "It Snowed" is a jazzy sing along about the excitement of waking up to snow - especially when you can spend the whole day with a loved one. "Christmas Kiss" reveals Meaghan's love of life.

I would be remiss if I only wrote about Meaghan's music. In addition to being a fabulous singer, Meaghan is an extremely talented artist. She studied animation at college. Her abundance of talent is evident in her creative and beautiful videos. "Silver Bells" can be viewed here. More of her videos are available here.
Meaghan is also a talented painter. She has created many mini-paintings and has put on mini art shows. A few of her paintings are below. Click here to view more.

Meaghan also did the artwork (17 vibrant, original illustrations) for Dave Gunning's new children's book "These Hands". A book based on his inspirational song co-written with George Canyon. Purchase a copy here.
Tour
Meaghan's 2012 holiday tour is almost complete. She plays Toronto's Roy Thompson Hall on December 15th at the Barra MacNeils East Coast Christmas show before her December 16th Halifax concert at Spatz Theatre. Tickets for the Halifax show can be purchased here. She wraps up her tour in Fredericton on December 18th at the Charlotte Street Arts Centre
Meaghan's holiday concert is sure to be a resounding success. Hope to see you there.
