Hi everyone,
I’ve just returned from a weekend in Ottawa where I was performing at the annual travel show on the New Brunswick stage. It was a beautiful weekend (14 degrees sunday!!) and I met lots of new friends. Also playing the NB stage was a country group from Edmunston, NB called the Lonesome Line. They are a really talented bunch, those boys! After a long day of traveling, I arrived back to find out some great news that I”ll be an official performer at this year’s Stan Roger’s Folk Festival. I had the pleasure of playing a couple of songs there last July in between acts on the main stage and it was definitely the most fun I’ve had at a festival before!! I’m super excited to be going back this year and encourage anyone who has not yet attended to come along for the experience. That’s all for now, check out the Lonesome Line here :

Dear friends,
Happy New Year to you all! I hope your holidays were spent with people you love and your memory is left with happy, joyful and peaceful moments. It’s been quite a while since I’ve updated the blog; I’ve mostly been taking a lot of time to write a new record and planning for the year to come. I’ve got lots to tell you about, but it will have to wait for now. In the meantime, is an image of the sunset as I was driving through Nova Scotia with a friend earlier this week.
Until next time- yours truly,
Babette

Hello all,
Last night Kim Churchill and I played in the intimate, very friendly and artsy town of Val-David, QC. The venue “La Mouton Noir” was decorated with spooky goblins and gargoyles galore. We were told by the kind owners, Eric and Annie, that a magician is coming to the venue and he is responsible for the decorations. It makes one wonder how a magician decorates? I didn’t have a chance to capture any gargoyle stills, but I’ll be back there to support Caracol on the 22nd so Ill make a point to bring back a photo then.
Later, I caught a ride back to Montreal with some of the nicest folks from Indica Records.
This leads me into today! I had the day off. It has been very rainy in Montreal and I spent a few hours wandering the city. This gave me an opportunity to brush up a little on my french, which at this point feels a bit like old best friend. The friend who I can go so many years without talking to, but when I finally do, it’s as though nothing has changed but a few memories lost in between. We have a lot of catching up to do!
Tomorrow night I will join Kim on stage again at The Corona theater. I’m very excited to play again in Montreal, hopefully I’ll get to see some of you out there tomorrow.
