hello friends,
it has been a long time since i have written you and I trust you are all well. I have been in yet another stage of transition, moving back from Quebec City to St. Catharines, Ontario, becoming a school bus driver, and continuing a degree. It has been a crazy slightly unsettling time as I've tried to find my balance in the midst of it all. Somehow though I am brought back to music and I have found refreshment picking out songs of the past and fixing them up. I would like to do this to a select few and make them available to you on an album that will hopefully be released in the fall. I will have a bunch of time on my hands come July and August and i plan on locking myself away to do just that...play, be, record and soon...release. There will also be new material included in the 'mix'. I would like to thank you all for your continued support as i journey, and I have been reminded yet again, that i do not journey alone. Thank you for being my fellow journeyers...
with much love,
Anthony Sweet

Greetings friends,
I am no longer under Winnipeg skies. I have now moved to Quebec City, where the streets are electric. They have called my name and i have answered their call.
My musical journey will continue here and I will bring you along. I will sing to you, whether you are here or abroad.
All of my material is free, my shows are by donation but if you'd like to give you can.
I wish you much peace as you continue to experience...i encourage you to reach out fully. To live, to live now. Not tomorrow or in the yesterdays...but now.
with love and melodies,
Anthony Sweet

well, 2011 is here....hard to believe. So much can happen in a year, doors open, doors close, paths move through mountains and dip through darkened valleys...time does not stop. Let's move into this new chapter with expectation and excitement....who knows where we'll find ourselves in a year from now...no regret!!
So...I'll let you into my mind...my dreams...at the tale end of last year I had the privilege of meeting an incredible person, a very talented producer and just a lovley fellow by the name of Dan Donahue. We're going to shoot for the stars...go big or go home. And that means i'm going for funding and an album, if all goes well.
It is both the desire of Dan and myself to envelope you in a sound that will fill you and carry you to another universe...so please stay tuned as this unfolds...as i pray that it does.
Much love to you all and may the dreams found deep in your beings come true this year....
You are loved...

Hello Friends,
I trust you are all well. I have now been in the L'arche community for almost a month...times never stops. That is one constant for us. But it has been good to be back, good to see familiar faces and simply just good to be back 'home'.
The learning hasn't stopped...now the lesson is in honesty, honesty in my communication with those closest to me. What is it i am saying? or what are my actions saying? It is good for me to consider this. If i don't examine, how else will I learn. But I want to not only bring those who interact with me on a daily basis into my being but you as well....my dear listener and fellow journier.
We must not be afraid to allow others in. Aren't we all on the same journey? We need to share our experiences with eachother, let's lay our differences aside and together seek God. But when i say God i don't exactly know what i mean...for i believe i am being shown God, the God outside any and all boxes as i journey...yes, AS I journey. So let us enter into our days with open hands and open hearts. He/She, the Eternal Source, The Divine will show us if we are willing.
I wish you much peace as you wake up...let's wake up.

Hello friends,I am very excited to announce that we are planning an album fundraiser at Park Theatres!! We are still ironing out all the kinks but this we do know, it will be a night you won't want to miss. So prepare yourselves to be drawn in, yes, drawn into something unique and delicious. Now, get a pen and mark the 28th of November on your calendars. For we will surely transport you.
much love,
Anthony Sweet
p.s. Details to be announced!!

Greetings friends,
I do hope your summer has been a restful/peaceful experience. I just can't believe how fast it is flying by...yet another reminder to stop and really inhale, pause and look around, and really be with those you love.
I couldn't sleep well last night...it seemed like i was staring at the glow in the dark stars for ever. One of the reasons could be the discussions Jessica, Jaime and I are having. We're all rather excited about putting down some tunes...the three of us. This will be a long awaited dream come true for me. I was thinking last night how blessed i am to know such beautiful and talented individuals and now you'll finally have the chance to hear our sound. With this demo we'll be looking into a touring grant and that might mean that we'll be coming to your neck of the woods. All the details are being worked out but i'll surely let you know when and where this demo will be made available...I have a feeling it might be a free or by donation type deal. What do you think?
Thanks again for your dedication to my music...
much peace.

The Album fundraiser has now been relocated to Ellice Theatre on the 9th of December. The cost is $10 at the door and we'll be sharing the stage with "From Giants". Come if my music has been a part of your life in any way.
