Vacation From Life (My Life as Katie MacColl) - 1998

All piano and vocals by Kate; all drums and percussion by Elliot Polsky, except where noted.


All lyrics and music: Kate Polsky except where noted.

Most of these tracks were recorded at the South Hill Candy Shop on May 31 and June 1, 1998, just before it burned down to the ground. Fred had just acquired some new recording equipment and asked me if I would let him record my stuff…and so with me on keyboard and my husband Elliot on drums, we went in after hours and recorded straight to DAT. Bless Fred and Rita McEachern for setting up shop and loving music so much.

It still feels as though the heartbeat of Main Street is gone.
