John Hewitt is one of the most prolific songwriters in Western Canada. After years of touring and performing in Canada he obtained his first visa to tour the United States and from this sparked the idea that he should culminate the first part of his career in these chronicles. Spanning nearly 20 years of songwriting with scattered stories from the road John Hewitt's music and lyrics take you down a path of imagery, simplicity and a depth that falls into the realm of John Prine, Jackson Brown and Bob Dylan. Originally hailing from Sault Ste. Marie Ontario and currently living in Edmonton Alberta John Hewitt is a master of stories, songs, poetry and humour. Aphrodite & Me takes on a universe of its own with a master of the pen and the inquisition of the reader.
