about

In loving memory of Jim & Melba

lyrics

Near Oshawa, the 401 lays like a ribbon on the ground
On either side as you drive by the factories and sleepy towns
Not far from there where I grew up, Tyendinaga was my home
I remember pain and angry days that I did not escape till I was grown
Till I was grown

As the years went by my wife and I left behind Ontario
We made a life on U.S. soil, better than the one we’d known
But the breath of God brings a breeze to reap the crop that you did sow
Though the USA was good to us, when the letter came we had to go
Go back home

Tyendinaga called me back
And showed me where to go
And opened up the door for me
To learn the things I know

The Blessed Beauty taught me then
About what I’m here to do
I learned the things you give up for love
And what it then gives back to you

Near Oshawa, the 401 lays like a ribbon on the ground
Amazing grace there came to me, I once was lost now I’m found
It was in that place I found true north, and turned my face towards the east
The sun shone down upon me there until the day my soul released
To go back home

Red Heaven Ottawa, Ontario

Red Heaven is lots of weird and intense original rock, blues, and world music. The band formed in 2011 and has released five semi-experimental hard rock albums. Red Heaven’s Joel Tamas (guitar and voice), Trevor Lubin (guitar), Jake Ferrera (drums), Cyrus Tearlach Robertson Orkish (bass), and Allison Bruneau (voice). Someone once told me the band sounds like umami tastes. ... more
