As Barney puts it, Gift Horse was made over the course of the last two years. Most of the project was done in Vancouver with my band-mate Johnny Ellis producing. Nothing will ever replace the relationship I had over the years with my band The Legendary Hearts. The music we made, the friendship and the memories are a big part of me. They have all gone on to be successful in their work and we still perform live together. But with all due respect, I felt that it was important after a lengthy break to record this collection of songs with other musicians - an environment without a complex history. The rest of the CD was recorded in Toronto with Blue Rodeo at their studio The Woodshed with my good friend Jim Cuddy producing. I love what that band has done for Canadian music. I ve known them for a long time and have played with them often. It felt very comfortable. It was probably the most enjoyable record I ve made over the course of my career, due to that lack of pressure and deadline. Hope you enjoy it.
