This week on Songwriters From Here and Away, we’re stepping back into a full evening of live music from The Pink Piano Café & Lounge.

It’s a night that captures everything we love about songwriter rounds — great songs, shared stories, and that easy connection between artists and audience.

You’ll hear performances from Mike Biggar, Laura Rae, and John Cornwall — each bringing their own voice, style, and perspective to the stage. And I’ll join in for a couple of tunes along the way as well.

It’s relaxed, it’s real, and it feels like being right there in the room.Settle in for a full night of songs — live at The Pink Piano Café & Lounge.

You may have noticed lately that we’ve been dipping into the archives here on Songwriters From Here and Away. Before anyone thinks we’ve become a nostalgia show… There are a few very good reasons. First, planning is underway for the 2026 Songwriters Retreat, which turns out to involve more emails, spreadsheets, and kitchen logistics than any reasonable human should face in one sitting.

Second, there’s a March 15th concert and livestream with Cheryl Gaudet coming up — which is something I’m very much looking forward to.

Third, I’m currently trying to learn 35 Motown songs for a band called Sounds of Motown. If you hear me quietly muttering “Chain Of Fools” in the grocery store aisle, that’s why. and last but not least, ramping up songwriters shows and a songwriter thing with jim Henman, Jeannie Beks & Cailin Green. More rehearsals!

So while the calendar is a little full, it’s also a perfect excuse to revisit some wonderful performances from the Songwriters From Here and Away archives.

This week’s replay features Dali Van Gogh — a memorable conversation and performance that’s remixed and worth a listen. Website: https://dalivangogh.com Music: https://dalivangogh.bandcamp.com
