A huge honour to be asked by @CBC to perform my hero @jonimitchell’s “River” to celebrate her Blue album anniversary. (And, frankly, so daunting I almost said no!) This song is one I’ve carried in my heart for most of my lifetime, across miles and oceans 💙cbc.ca/radio/day6/joni-mitch…

When I was still a @cbcradio temp — not even out of jschool — I spent a single day at @metromorning. Ing Wong-Ward went out of her way to make sure I went home with a @CMGLaGuilde handbook. I didn’t know Ing well, but I’ve never forgotten that. She looked out for me. Thanks, Ing.
