Last show of the tour in Banff! Another incredible experience at @banffcentre , thank you to everyone who took care of us, we are so grateful that this place exists. I wrote some of the songs from "The God That Comes" back in the day during a development stay here. What a place to celebrate the end of tour and Lonely's birthday!
On rare nights, Banff Centre glows under northern lights, with waves of color sweeping the sky above the mountains, inviting us to pause and marvel.

Autumn is in full effect, and there's no denying its colourful majesty. This time of year only lasts a short while, so no time like the present to venture up for a campus stroll and even a meal stop at our Maclab Bistro.
CONGRATS on the release of this wonderful work, @lailabiali 👏
🌄 Rocky Mountain Lullaby is out now!

Every morning at the @banffcentre I would wake up early and head over to my writing cabin in the woods. There, sitting at the piano surrounded by floor to ceiling glass windows, I would watch the warm yellow light emerge from behind the mountains. The feeling was one of gentle welcome, a morning lullaby.
Thanks for listening. 💖
