These bad hombres rolled up to the ol’ ranch today to record/demo some new songs. We’ve been playing together as a trio for 15yrs but after i took some time off this year we’ve only got ONE show together in 2025, and it’s at the ON Cultivate Festival on Sept 28 - on a goat farm!? Don't miss out!

Before canceling my streaming subscriptions (long ago) I recorded my playlists to reel-to-reel. So, this is how I use Spotify. There’s something beautiful about the inconvenience of not having everything you want, all the time.

The @hillsidefestival.bsky.social has changed Steve's and my life forever. As stated previously, we are expected to set the standard in both conduct and accountability, and recently, that standard was not met. We ask for privacy during this difficult time. #coldplaykisscam

Talking on my fancy cordless landline back in 2003 (?) at my old place on Puslinch Lake, ON. I had just signed a deal with Maple Music/Universal and released "Tales From the Invisible Man". To celebrate, I bought that badass chocolate-brown Camaro behind me. It was a good day.

Join me as I take the 1984 Roland G-707 and GR-700 guitar synthesizer for a spin—for the very first time! It’s the musical equivalent of a DeLorean.
Spoiler: I have no idea how it works, but that’s half the fun.

Best gig ever—helping to clean up a big ash tree, taken down because of the emerald ash borer beetle (EAB) 🪲 My job is “rudder man”, which means I get to use my favourite tool—the cant hook. There’s nothing it can’t do! #canthook #emeraldashborer

David Bowie challenging MTV on racial inequality and DEI in 1983. Aways ahead of his time, always inspiring.

Thrilled to hear 4th grade students at Green School Bali/Southeast Asia are learning "Feather, Fur & Fin" to explore justice, fairness, caring for the planet — and to spark environmental activism! These are the true highlights of my time here on this planet 🌎💚 #FeatherFurAndFin #GreenSchoolBali

It was great to see Carolynn today at the Sheffield Park Black History Museum in Clarksburg, On. I was helping clean up fallen trees in time for their grand opening --> May 22. I also got a copy of her Uncle Howard’s new book, which delves into the early black settlers of Simcoe &Grey counties. <3

Profoundly relieved that @mark-carney.bsky.social
is our PM, & so proud that Canada didn’t follow the U.S. down the MAGA road. Carney handled Trump exactly how I hoped—and expected—he would: calm, polite, forceful. I hope the cons recognize he is a very different person than Trudeau. #canadastrong
