Dreams, Canada's Ultimate Tribute to Fleetwood Mac, ROCKS!

I'm in love with my job~  For all the years I spent spinning Fleetwood Mac records I didn't even dare to dream of singing their music in front of people and now here I am, sharing it with everyone, onstage, night after night in town after town!  What an epic band, it's been an incredible couple of years and things just keep ramping up.

You'll see a lot more action  HERE by the way.... on Facebook where Tracy and I run the page and post from the road~

I'll steal a few shots and share them with you now and if you want to know more, like the page for updates. If you want to book the band you can find our manager's contact on our webpage HERE!

love and light to you all~

My guitar art (Society6, Rachael Chatoor) at the Vancouver Guitar Show

Well my friends,  another year complete at the Vancouver Guitar Show.
This year I brought a load of Society6 samples, since every time I share the links for people to buy their items with my artwork on them, I'm asked about the quality so I wanted to show everyone in person.

You can buy this shirt HERE

The most guitarious gig towels ever!!  LINK

Rather than offering canvas paintings for a few hundred dollars and up, I brought items that were all under $100! 

I met many friends who were visiting the show like this lovely lady whom I painted last year. 

She bought a Reimer Bass. 

as well as some of my pillows!  

Rod Macbeth from CKPM-FM bought my awesome vintage mic mug, then played my song Overboard  on the air this morning! 

Lisa (who hosted the Freakrock Jam featuring special guests such as Shaun Verreault) stopped by for a hug and a pic.                  

Overall a fun and successful show! If you want more info on my Society6 products feel free to browse around my store...... or you can start here!

summer subbing ~ Nancy Wilson, Stevie Nicks and Frida from Abba!

Well it's been a summer of tributes...I worked hard this year getting ready as a sub-in  for three different  shows. This year I was Nancy Wilson in Barracuda, Frida in Arrival(Abba), and Stevie Nicks in Dreams. Fun times, I had my work cut out for me but all were a great success! 

Pictured are some of the amazing venues and stage shots!  Click the link to get a feel of  the crowds!
I love my job.

At Clearwater Casino and Resort we had a whopping 1600 people standing on their feet and singing and dancing with us...the water as our backdrop was filled with boats.... (picture from soundcheck pre-show)
