Ollabelle Video from Recording Session

Here's a video of a song we recorded on our session.
It was shot and edited by cameraman Alex Rappaport.

Ollabelle goes to Alaska






Ollabelle went to Alaska in January 2008. Unfortunately, Amy couldn't make it as she was a little too pregnant but our dear friend Martha Scanlan, who was also on the shows, sat in for some songs and sounded wonderful.
Our tour manager/sound engineer Doug Dawson joined us for the tour. He is the best fun around. We also did a show in Vancouver which was great.
Alaska was so beautiful. Our first show was in Fairbanks which was a balmy 33 BELOW. Interesting how that affects one's sinuses. We then went to Anchorage which is a great town with great audiences. Our last stop was Homer, which was my particular favourite. It was so beautiful. We had a driver called Fergie whoidrove us from Anchorage to Homer and showed us all the sights. He even went out of his way to show us a moose,, which we couldn't get a great picture of but we saw her (the moose cow). There is a bald eagle sanctuary in Homer too which was just amazing.
We loved Alaska and can't wait to go back.

Here are some photos;
