Big announcement part 2
Hey Folks!!!
Big announcement part 2!!
As promised, I have another announcement for all of your reading pleasure! I have been holding onto this one for a bit but since the date is drawing closer, without further ado, I want to tell you all that I will be playing drums for Rufus and Martha Wainwright’s Noël Nights!!
The show will be held at Place Des Arts Maison Symphonique hall on December 21st. I am very happy and honoured to be performing with all these great musicians for this wonderful event. I don’t think I can find a greater way to kick off the Christmas season!!
Rufus And Martha Wainwright’s Noël Nights.
“Rufus and Martha Wainwright convene the crème de la crème of the music scene in this benefit concert celebrating Christmas. They’ll be joined by Louis-Jean Cormier, Ariane Moffatt and Amy Millan, to name but a few, taking the stage with the brother-sister duo to light up the evening, all proceeds of which will go to the Kate McGarrigle Fund, which supports cancer care and research at the McGill University Cancer Centre and the McGill University Health Centre Foundation. A good cause has seldom been such joyous fun!”
I sure hope that I will see some of you at the show. This is going to be a great one and will surely be a pleasure for all!
-Lewis.

Hey Folks!!!
As promised: I have some news comin at you and I figured I’d give it to you in a few installments!
First up: I have the great and supreme pleasure of announcing that I am now playing drums with Paul Cargnello. We have been rehearsing up the songs off his new album The Hardest Part Is You May Never Know which is being released at the end of November on Stomp Records (The Union Label Group/Warner)
To fans of Paul’s work: we will also be playing a bunch of the old tunes as well so don’t worry about that!! Below is a list of upcoming shows as well as the first video off the new album. All dates will also be posted on my shows page.
I’m looking forward to seeing all of you on the road at the shows!! For a teaser of the songs off the new album just click on this ***LINK*** to view the video for ‘Rebel Architectes’.

News and shows on the horizon!!
Hey folks!!
My apologies for the subdued website lately. Perhaps it went unnoticed even? I do trust I have a few people checkin out what I’m doing from time to time and I am very grateful for the attention!
I will be updating my tour schedule shortly, posting new audio, as well as putting up some very important announcements that I feel are pretty awesome! Without giving away too much; I’ll just say that it’s going to be impacting me in a pretty great way and I am extremely grateful.
Stay tuned. . .
Now if I can only manage to not eat all my sons Halloween candy before him this year.
-Lewis.
