Thanks to Andy Peters for bringing us all here!! I’m staying in downtown Belfast. It’s my first time in Ireland. Yesterday we visited the shipyard where the Titanic was built. Check out myspace.com/cpmartin for a list of all the shows we are playing in Ireland this week. Very excited to be here with my friends Dave Gunning and Dave Carroll… and my new friend Terry Penny from NFLD who we met for the first time yesterday. I’m just thrilled to be here and to be part of the Belfast Nashville Songwriters Festival (along with Naci Griffith.. yay!!) I’ve discovered a liking for Guinness already. I’m off to discover more if Northern Ireland…

Dale and I flew to Vancouver to perform two shows during the Olympics last week. The volunteers, workers, and the audiences treated us like gold! The first show we performed was at the Roundhouse with Jimmy Rankin, which was a real treat! Jimmy and I sang the song we co-wrote called ‘Walk That Way’. It was nice to see familiar faces in the audience, and plenty of people from my home province of New Brunswick came out.

The next show we played won a gold medal for the venues. The Atlantic Canada house was labeled one of the top places to check out music’ during the Olympics. Located on Granville Island, the venue had lineups all day/night for people to get in and experience a bit of our end of the country. We had a blast playing here! My good friends Cuff The Duke flew from Toronto to back me up for two shows at Atlantic Canada House and we had a great time!
