TSM Presque Isle Podcast 7 – Jeff Ouellette and James Blanchard
This week I had the pleasure of chatting with the fantastic and multitalented Jeff Ouellette of Caribou and I've got music from New Brunswick artist James Blanchard.
Jeff is a jack of all trades, he's a painter, a woodworker, and an author. Jeff enjoys painting "County" stuff on saw blades, milk cans, and even moose antlers. Pieces of Jeff's art can be found in the CBS news building on West 57th in NYC and at a cottage on "Big Bear" in California. Jeff says "my compass points in many directions and is always spinning. It keeps my mind fresh but confuses all of my friends and family. I justify my chaos by claiming, "It's an Art thing."" To find out more about Jeff and his art, friend him on Facebook.
Jeff says you can't just pick up a saw blade and start painting, there's tons of prep work.
I'm very excited to share James Blanchard's music with you. James is an extremely talented artist who lives near Fredericton, New Brunswick. He is considered a jack-of-all-instruments songwriter using guitar, piano, bass, violin, mandolin & ukulele. If you'd like to find out more about James, make sure to follow him on Twitter @TheLateJames and check out more of his tunes on music.cbc.ca. Watch James perform live in the video below.
