Ilulissat, Greenland Travel Teaser - The Iceberg Adventures Part 2
Here is a teaser video of my time in beautiful Ilulissat, Greenland. This town, the Icefjord, and all the icebergs are the most stunning things I've ever seen in the natural world. I am still glowing from this amazing trip.
I went to Ilulissat working on my music album called, "The Iceberg." While I was there I recorded songs with my good friend and sound engineer Eric L'Esperance. We also explored and took in all the wonder. The Icefjord was like the Grand Canyon on ice steroids. It's no wonder it's a UNESO World Heritage Site, and marvelous is not strong enough word.
Over the next few months I plan on making many travel videos about my trip including a look at the town of Ilulissat, exploring and hiking the Icefjord, a love letter to the restaurant Koks, A tour of Disko Bay with Ilulissat Adventure, what food and grocery stores are like in town, music videos for my songs, and much more.

Skerwink Trail - Epic Newfoundland Hike - The Iceberg Adventures Part 1
Переглядів 1 тис.Місяць тому
This is part 1 of my iceberg adventures! In this video my daughter and I hike the Skerwink Trail near Port Rexton, Newfoundland in June, 2024. It was one of the most stunning hikes of my life, and I could not recommend it higher. The song in the background is an instrumental I wrote during the pandemic on my little Seagull Merlin dulcimer. It is unnamed at the moment, but might be called "St. J...

This was in honor of their donation to my Kickstarter campaign to support my upcoming album called, "The Iceberg." People who donated at a certain level were able to choose any song for me to make a UA-cam cover. I'm so glad they went with this s...

What an amazing trip to Newfoundland. It is hard to describe the gratitude I feel for all the support right now. Crazy that I took all the photos and videos. I'm a singer songwriter from Boston, MA working on an album called, "The Iceberg." I launched a Kickstarter in February, 2024, and was able to raise enough money for me to make an album and go on an iceberg adventure. People were so incred...

Here is a version of my song "Synapses Fire," recorded live in Twillingate, Newfoundland. This song will be included on my upcoming album called "The Iceberg," which is why I came to Newfoundland. I was on the hunt to find a real iceberg in person and Twillingate is considered the iceberg capital of the world. But... due to the current and wind, no icebergs there this year... that led to a 9 ho...
When You Love It's a Choice

When you love it's a choice not just an emotion... That line struck me like lightning twenty years ago... Here's a new version of a song that always felt like a simple gift from the muse. Two friends in the past month have mentioned how much this song means to them, so I decided to make a little lyric video. I hope you are feeling deeply loved today no matter what struggles you are going through.

I had the great fortune of seeing the 2024 solar eclipse up in Sutton, Quebec. To say totality took my breath away would be an understatement. Easily one of the most profound and beautiful experiences of my life. I've seen the stars shine in the middle of the sunny day! I am blessed. The eclipse helped me reflect on how even times of darkness can be a treasure. The pain we all share will someda...
Every Breath We Take is Holy - A song for Good Friday
Переглядів 935 місяців тому
Here is a song in honor of Good Friday. It's called "Every Breath We Take is Holy," and it will be on The Iceberg. (Probably one of the songs to be recorded in Greenland!) Even though it has religious undertones, I hope anyone can relate to the general idea no matter their faith. We do all breathe the same air, and drink the same water. Maybe a molecule in that cup of tea you are drinking was o...

This is a song I wrote in honor of my good friend Matthew Gagné. Not only did he turn 45 this week, he is old, he also celebrated 20 years on the force at the Sanford Maine Police Department. Few have taught me more in this life about true friendship, bravery, and overcoming obstacles. Heads up, this is not a light song. It combines different real life stories that Matt has actually has had to ...

A little Bob Dylan for my friend Paul who is going through it. Had a little head cold with a tired voice, but seemed perfect singing a little Bob. Wasn't planning on putting this out, but I liked how raw the entire thing was. Makes me smile when the air purifier kicks in halfway through the song!

Awesome. Love your guitar work. Thanks for teaching me this Dylan song. Not sure how I missed it. Thanks again.
Thanks so much for your kind words! It's such a great song.
This video appears to be only 3 days old. If that is the case, and you are still in Newfoundland, enjoy the rest of your stay! Just don't come east! Too much rain right now!!! 😂
I posted the video when I got home, and luckily had really nice weather there. You live in a beautiful place.
Absolutely amazing brother! I can’t wait for more music!
Thanks so much brother Shane! I'm so excited about this project, and I hope the music is flowing in you too.
Love you and your sweet spirit, Dan! So glad you got to be around icebergs! Wish I'd been there to help with bird IDs! Whales! ❤❤❤❤❤
There were two puffins floating right alongside the berg! You would have loved in my friend. Along the Bonavista peninsula we heard loons every morning and I would always immediately burst into your song in my head. Still one of my all time favorites.
@@DanCloutierSongwriter Didst find thyselves at Burnt Cape Ecological Reserve at the Northern tip of NF? MAGIC!!!
@@Oenloveslife They were outside in the open atlantic right outside of St. Anthony. The tour guide seemed surprised to see them there. We saw a huge colony of Puffins at the Bonavista lighthouse! Lots of gannets and gulls too!
WOW what an experience Dan! So thrilling and the beauty even thru the fog we get to see. Great music.
Thank you so much for such a nice comment. So glad you enjoyed the music and video!
Loved it! Lovely song but I was completely taken with the video! How well it ties to your lyrics. But the shots of whales and icebergs and fog ! I miss “the Rock”!!!
Thanks so much Ellen! I know how much you loved Newfoundland, and I too can't wait to get back.
Love it!
Love it!!
