Hi Friends!
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So happy to announce the launch of this new song and video!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It has been a while in the works: I first learned of the Chilcotin War in 2018 while looking through some library books at Okanagan College, this picture caught my eye.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chilcotin Chiefs by Shawn Swanky<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I started reading about it and was hooked. I knew immediately that there was a song in here. And after a few months of research, the song took shape.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I presented my research and song at a few conferences over the past year, but did not get down to the recording until this past spring. I recorded it in a studio I built in my home in 2016: I call it the “Walter Machura Studio” because it was my first solo-building project that I had ever done. I will never forget the day when it was completed, and I was thinking about naming it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As I thought and enjoyed that incredible moment of accomplishment (along with a nice cool scotch and soda), it occurred strongly to me that my dad (who can build and\/or fix anything) is in this work that I have just done! That’s the name!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It has taken me more time than I thought to start releasing some music from this great studio, but oh well…we all know how life laughs at our plans! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, without further ado, here’s the video and song–the first song from my upcoming album, btw. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
