Summer is winding down and so am I - sort of.
Fall is right around the corner, and September may be my favourite month!
It has been a wonderful and wild summer. I've been across the pond and across the country, I've met so many new and old friends, got to hear a bunch of stellar musicians and songwriters, and now it's time to get my cozy on.
Almost.
I have a few more shows before I wrap things up for the year. I'm taking a long break from public facing events so that I can focus inward, on my book, on my album, making videos and planning for the future. Maybe it's not a break, so much as a change in pace.
Before I close up shop for 2024, I'd love to let you know about some things that are happening close to home:
September 13-15 - Guelph ON - Women's Music Weekend - SOLD OUT
September 20 - Summerside PE - Small of my Heart Songcircle w/ Lisa MacIsaac and Heather Rankin
September 26 - Pictou NS - The Songs of Gene MacLellan - The Decoste Centre
September 27 - Dartmouth NS - Port Wallis United Church - w/ Rachael Kilgour
September 28 - Brooklyn NS - House concert w/ Rachael Kilgour - SOLD OUT
September 29 - Miramichi NB - House concert w/ Rachael Kilgour
For those of you who were watching my travels this summer, you may have noticed that I landed in Jasper the day of the big fire, and was evacuated with my friends. It was a very scary time, I was worried for their whole family and community, for their house (which did burn), and for their futures.
What I learned from them is that people matter (of course) more than any thing. That insurance companies are jerks. And that humans are resilient and incredible.
I hope to get back there in 2025 to visit and with any hope to take part in a fundraising event.
More on that to come.
I'll be staying home as much as possible for October through December but I have a very busy 2025 in the works.
You can find me on tour in Alberta and BC in January / February.
There are some Ontario dates for April shaping up.
I'll be in the UK for the entire month of May.
And then summer will be back again - and who knows what that will bring.
As everything reveals itself, I'll keep you in the loop.
For all show details, head to my website.
That's it for now...
As always, if you can share any show promo with your pals, it really helps me out.
Take good care,
xoxo
Catherine
