March's "Hat of the Month" Navy Blue Crushable Fedora 02.02.07 I'm very excited to finally be able to use my Gitane guitar (image soon to follow...please keep checking the gear page) at my live shows.

New month, new featured hat! February's "Hat of the Month" A Bordeaux Eleganza Happy New Year!!! We're pleased to introduce an exciting new feature for this website. For those of you that have attended any of my shows, you may have noticed that I have developed an obsession with hats - not just any hats, but Biltmore Hats. Lucky for me they are located here in Guelph, ON. Over the past year, I've become good friends with everyone at this establishment and i've picked up some truly amazing hats. So, now I would like to share them by adding a "Hat of the Month" to the main page, and a hat gallery on the "Music" page. Please visit their factory outlet on Morris Street in Guelph and Bette will be more than happy to help you find the perfect hat for you!
As a special tribute to this new website feature, I've included a new gypsy piece, entitled "C'est La Vie" - enjoy the new music while you browse through the hats. January's "Hat of the Month" is a beautiful Rust Designer Series Fedora
