New Single "It Came Upon a Midnight Clear (Feat. Aila Massie)" Released December 11, 2020 Purchase now on Bandcamp...
Running Time: 5m14s
“It Came Upon a Midnight Clear” takes the original song and adds in many layers of guitar, vocals and orchestration to create a wall of sound that brings a new feel to the song. The song also adds some new musical sections from Rick Massie."
“I wanted to have fun with this one. Firstly, I really wanted to work with my daughter to create a song together, since we spend so much time listening to so much music together. I thought this would be a fun way to spend some time preparing for the holidays, and giving back to those who are having a tough time this year, by sending out joy and hope through a song they already know and love.”

New Single "The Dance of the Dead (And Alive)" Released October 23, 2020 Purchase now on Bandcamp...
Running Time: 7m14s
“A celebration of my favourite time of the year, and the memories I have of spending many days with my Dad, crunching through leaves, smelling woodsmoke coming from nearby houses, and building epic Hallowe’en scenes for the trick-or-treaters to admire. It’s also a celebration of the past - when people believed that Samhain was a time that their loved ones spirits would come back to visit - I’m certain we all have at least one loved one we’d love to visit with again. To hold hands with, and dance together. It may not be possible, but it’s certainly a dream worth celebrating.”

New Single "The Storm" Released September 4th, 2020 Purchase now on Bandcamp...
Running Time: 8m17s
“Some days our social media feeds are filled with messages and comments of hate and division. I’ll never understand how some people can be so opposed to treating others fairly and with respect. I wrote ‘The Storm’ to ask people to treat others fairly, with respect and equality, to check your own biases and assumptions, and to take steps to make this world a better place for everyone. To spread love, not hate. And for us to all come together for that cause.”

Album Premiere: Eclipse
Stream the album exclusively on Sleeping Village! Listen to the album before its release on Friday, May 1st.
"Across the board, I'm reminded of classic prog rock--not necessarily in sound, but rather in composition. The ability to pull the listener seamlessly through movements and a multiplicity of sounds is a massive strength. The liberal use of strings, electronic soundscapes, and choral backdrops throughout only adds to this proggy association." - Sleeping Village

New Single and Video "Together As One" Released March 27, 2020
Together As One is a single in the truest sense - it is not part of the upcoming debut album "Eclipse". It was written as a love song, but meant to be broader than a “standard” love song. Its love spreads to everyone, all across the world, regardless of gender, beliefs, race, or political leanings. It is an anthem that celebrates the power of humanity when we come together and embrace our differences, and work toward a better world.
“I hope that Together As One will shine a little light amidst any darkness in your life. “
Special thanks to Alternative Control for hosting the video premiere on March 23, 2020.
