www.danfrechette.comAt 30 years old, the Pinawa, Manitoba-based singer/songwriter is a wealth of musical knowledge and experience. Frechette has written about 1400 songs. Now, with his first full-length solo recording, Lucky Day, Dan Frechette brings his knowledge and songwriting chops to bear on an album that brims with his unabashed enthusiasm and crackles with the sound of a writer clearly discovering the top of his game.
“Manitoba singer/songwriter Dan Frechette, blessed with an enormous talent a facility for adapting elemental folk forms — bluegrass, Celtic airs, country, ragtime, country blues — to his purpose, the likes of which I haven’t heard since Dylan’s first recordings... Lucky Day is already a classic, an album that will surely find an exalted place in the canon.”

Residents and tourists in Venice waded through knee-deep water Monday as they navigated the city's narrow streets and alleys, and its historic St. Mark's Square was inundated.
In New Orleans, a warning to flee emptied the city before Hurricane Gustav in early September. In Houston, a plea to "hunker down" might have kept evacuation routes from clogging before Hurricane Ike struck.
