From March 10 to April 5, I’ll be playing drums with Wax Mannequin and Mathias Kom of the Burning Hell on something we’ve dubbed, the Hear Some Evil Tour. I’ve learned how to play their songs and we’re feeling pretty good about things. Oh, and I’ll be documenting our trip every week day on my CBC Radio 3 show, the Wrath of Khanna, from 7:00 AM to 9:00 AM EST.

If you or anyone else might be interested in covering our shows press-wise here’s a helpful tour EPK link with hi-res photos, music, a PR, etc. If you know of anywhere in the following cities where we might be able to crash, that’d be helpful too. Here are the tour dates:

Evening Hymns atop Mount Fruity

After a long period of discussion about it happening at “some point,” my Breakfast Club show on CBC Radio 3 is now available as a podcast. The original show streams/airs on cbcradio3.com and channel 86 on Sirius satellite radio every Thursday morning from 7:00 AM to 10:00 AM EST. Today’s show celebrated the third anniversary of the Out of this Spark record label with owner Stuart Duncan and Jonas Bonnetta of Evening Hymns. You can check it out here and also subscribe to the podcast if you like…

Hey, if you’re near a computer or Sirius Satellite Radio channel 86, you can hear me having breakfast with Wax Mannequin this morning on CBC Radio 3. We’re discussing tonight’s record release party at the Horseshoe Tavern in Toronto for his excellent new record Saxon, which I wholeheartedly recommend.
