I don’t think I’ve mentioned my cousin Nathan here before.

Nathan is a pretty cool guy.  His dad died when Nate was just a wee bugger, but his mother, sister and older brother all made damned sure that Nathan’s life was full of music.  Despite (or perhaps because of) many years of being compared to his father, Nathan has grown up quite nicely into his own skin.  He’s got Stan’s talent, but his very own style and passion.

I went to see Nate play the other day at his CD release party at Hugh’s Room here in Toronto.  I knew he was good (I own his last CD), but he’s even better live.

I’m pretty sure mom would kill me if I didn’t at post a couple of photos, so here he is
