• Congratulations to Brian Tremblay. He has released a new single entitled Cold Mill Blues. “This is my fourth single of 2023. A simple blues number of guitar and harmonica that tells the story of my father’s time working at Algoma Steel in the cold mill. “I’ve always tried to honour my father and what he did during WW II and raising us. I could have done more than that when I was younger so I’m trying to make up for it in my songs because I miss him.” When you hear the lyric, “he even left his blood in that mill” that’s a call back to an accident my father had in the later sixties. He got 4 1/2 toes cut off on 2-ton shears.” The song available on all the major streaming services or head over to the Music section of Brian’s website.
