about

I met Charles Robertson III (Charlie) at a backyard birthday celebration, in the Gatineau Hills. We made music together several more times, but only once on stage. One winter weekend I went into Charlie's newly installed home studio and laid down a goodly bunch of my little songs. Charlie treated them like pizza dough balls, spinning them out into wide, wonderful pieces of music, layering them with his mature musicality. I felt like I had handed him musical memos, and, with a little help from his friends, but overwhelmingly through the magic of his powers of arrangement, he handed me back sonic sonnets, every line suffused with power and beauty. Then he graced me with his belief that we had an album in the making.
Charlie passed away on Monday, June 3rd, 2013 at the age of fifty-eight, of a cruel stoke, before we could complete our magical musical tour. A sad while later his beautiful wife Benta generously
allowed me to extract the hard drive of our almost completed project. Over the next couple of years in the Teletoons studio of Kenny Kanwisher we brought into harbour and docked Charlie's final musical voyage. I admire, appreciate and adore what Charlie created.
