Hey there! Thought you guys might like to see the intro video for the CGMA Awards. It was created by the brilliant folks at Fabric Creative in Vancouver (Gordie Cochrane and Dan Stewart). I wrote and produced the music.

Check out Diana Pops' new song 'Light My Cigarette' on BandCamp. We did this song together in Nashville and Winnipeg.. Tyler Burkum played the guitar and Bryan Cook mixed. Check out what Diana has to say about the song below:
"Light My Cigarette" was written as a response. When faced with events in my life that could incur major change, my reflex action is to write a song to calm myself down. This is not so much to make me feel better, but more to paint a larger picture which reflects the feelings of the moment back at me to help me understand where I'm at.
This song was originally about the prospect of signing a record deal. When I was approached, I was more scared than excited. I'm a bit of a hermit, and the thought of being "on" all the time was a pretty daunting one. At the time there was so much unknown to me about what my lifestyle would look like should I be signed - but I was pretty sure it would entail more than drinking tea and playing piano late into the night; tucked away in my old house on the prairies.
I ended up recording "Light My Cigarette" two weeks after I wrote it, whilst I was in LA to meet with the label. The irony was not lost on me.
On June 29 2010, Concord Records is releasing Kenny G's 13th studio album. Walter Afanasieff produced the album, I programmed the tracks (official credit reads: Additional Production, Programming, Keyboards & Engineering) and co-wrote one as well. Mick Guzauski mixed. But perhaps my favorite part was doing the track that Robin Thicke sang on, entitled 'Fall Again'. Check it out at Concord Records. I also got a pretty sweet shoutout..!
"Thanks for recording these tracks so well!! And Adrian, thanks for all the hip sounds and cool parts. You made my music much better!"
