It's now time for Heather to join me in passing the jam to an exciting new artist. Our next artist in residence is a two time Juno nominee. He has been composing and performing in Canada for over five decades. He is a prolific songwriter and composer. In 1986, he was nominated for a #JunoAward for his song #MonawiththeChildren on #TrueNorthRecords. He was nominated for a second Juno in 2004 for the Best Children's record for #AntsinYourPants.
He leads #TheLouisianaSnowblowers, a local roots blues, jazz combo, and plays drums in #ThreeCordJohnny, one of Toronto's premier, R and B collectives. He is the guitarist in the touring show. #WhiskeyJackPresentsStoriesandSongsofStompingTom.
