FOLLOW GIANT HAND ON TOUR

I am heading out on my second tour this year. I’m doing this one alone, so this could be interesting. I’ll be stopping in Montreal, Burlington, New York City, Charlottetown, Moncton, and Ottawa on this little tour. It should be good. I’ll be taking pictures and writing about the goings on, on the road as I trek through the East coast via planes, trains, and automobiles. This way, I will hopefully be able to take you with me on the tour so I don’t have to feel so alone. So feel free to write back and such.

First stop is Montreal tonight at Casa del Popolo with the amazing Rae Spoon! Can’t wait!

You can follow what I’m up to on creepy ol’ Twitter, Facebook, and this mildly less creepy tour blog.

I am very happy to announce that I will be heading out on my very first tour. But the only way this tour will be a success is if people come out to the shows. I do not have a publicist, or a record label to help promote this tour. I am doing all the promotion myself.

So this is where I need your help. If you are planning on attending one of the shows, please mark yourself as attending this event. If you can get 10 of your friends out to a show, I will give you a signed copy of my album “Coming Home”. If you can get 30 of your friends to come out, not only will I think you’re the most popular person alive, but I will give you a download code to download every single song I’ve ever recorded, including the ones never released. I will also give you a signed copy of my album Coming Home and a special sneak peak CD to my upcoming EP that I am recording with my friend Rolf Klausener of the Acorn. On top of that, you will receive any album I put out in the future.

This event is an open invitation, so feel free to invite all your friends, copy the poster and spread it around, and let’s make each night a party!

LOVE,
Kirk Ramsay
aka Giant Hand

Raw Sugar Café Show pics and Interview

Last night's show in Ottawa was a very snowy show. But never the less, a good amount of people came out to see me play with Ben Somer and Matt Paxton.

Local photographer Ming Wu took some pictures, and I was interviewed by Stephanie. You can see all the pictures from the show, and listen to the interview on Ming's site HERE
