Unique World Citizen Pip Shares Urbane Message of Unity in Troubled Times on "Everybody's Sayin'" from 30th LP 'Every City'
Pip contributed to the 'first wave' of music activity on Toronto's Queen Street West and has lived and played extensively in Europe and Asia. He currently lives in Hamilton, ON, writing, recording, performing and selling original art-pop with world and jazz elements. Running the blog metroPhilmusic since 2008, Pip's own music is influenced by world rhythms and the lute. Brand new album, Every City, is Pip's 30th LP release.
On Every City, Pip wants the listener to feel uplifted. There is a long arc throughout the 16 songs; a few melodic tunes, a couple of ballads, a rock-steady tune, a couple of rockier numbers, then a novelty song leading to the final two contemplative songs that take out the album's journey. The double bass and nylon stringed guitar of focus track, "Everybody's Sayin',” is gentle and profound, asking the listener to step back from civil tensions.

Observing all the conflicts around the world. In practice, we can't just go anywhere; but maybe one day there won't be any fences, borders, prejudices. Never mind what "everybody is saying." People may say you're a victim but don't listen to the shouting of the media. Use your resourcefulness, and think for yourself. – Pip on "Everybody's Sayin'"
