Hi well last weekend I played two shows.  One in beautiful Yakima. Thank you for those in attendance and to Ian McFeron and his band.  There was an Iron Maiden and a Rush band playing on another stage that night too!

The other show was at a food bank in the University District here in Seattle.  It is a very enriching experience a great idea and much appreciated.  If you would like to play there yourself or learn more about it please contact Al at healingharmonies@hotmail.com

He is a great guy who is doing a wonderful thing. Start one in your own neighborhood!

It has been a while since an update but I have to go do battle with a sink full of dirty dishes, so briefly,  I just played three shows at the Yakima Folklife Festival. 
They have been putting on this event now for 23 years and it is incredible. The people are wonderful, the music is great and there is fantastic Mexican food everywhere.  If you play music or love music remember and support this event.  It is an all volunteer grass roots effort done the way you would do a festival if you could.  It coincides with a lowrider convention too, what else could you ask for?

Also Haywire Booking is working furiously to book the nationwide tour.  Visit the site and if you know people in the towns we are passing through have them come out to the shows.  We would be much appreciative.

I will be relocating to Portland in November! That’s all for now!

Colin 
just performed to a full lawn at the incredibly popular Northwest

Folklife!  Melinda Friedman  joined on vocals and Johnny Sangster played the electric guitar.  It was a stellar show and all on film, hopefully some clips will be posted here soon. Colin is beginning to look more and more like Neil Diamond everyday and that is a wonderful thing.

Also the reviews keep coming in for the Colin Spring and The Band That Murdered SIlence album Cancion del Pollo released at the end of 2004.  This perhaps the biggest national mag yet.  The fine Big Takeover gave a fantastic review, go on give it a look!
