Learn You by Heart is the culmination
of a few years of songwriting and a lot of years living. On June 1, 2019, we celebrated its completion with a performance and festive gathering at the Stampede's newly-opened heritage re-creation venue, Doherty Hall. Backed by multi-instrumentalist Steve Goodchild, plus Rob McConnell on bass, and Helen Goodchild on keyboards and fiddle (along with guest cellist Shirley Wright), we offered up an evening of songs from the new album and a few older and a few freshly-minted songs too!
