First Listen: Three new albums by Ewan Dobson
YouTube guitar sensation says move to N.L. has been artistically productive
Guitar virtuoso and YouTube sensation Ewan Dobson says his relocation to Newfoundland and Labrador has been very musically productive.
"It's less busy [here] than Toronto, where I lived before," said Dobson,
"So I've been able to put more focus into recording and writing."
Dobson settled into to a new home just outside St. John's about a year ago, and since then, he has created three albums of original music: Insomnimania, The Pit of Despair and the Joy of the Trampoline, and Signor Paganini and Friends.
Dobson said he divides his time between composing, recording and teaching at his new home, and performing overseas, in Europe and Asia.
Have a listen to Dobson's conversation with Weekend AM host Heather Barrett about his new albums.
