performing songs that we all have heard and enjoyed.

Hi I am a singer songwriter from Sydney Nova Scotia.I live on the beautiful Island of Cape Breton.For those of you who don't know where this is, It is on the east coast of Canada. I enjoy many styles of music from country to pop Celtic to folk.Mostly I play on my own for various events within my community.but I have been fortunate to share the stage with some of cape Bretons favorite performers such as Bobby Lewis (Carlton Show Band) , The Back In Time band with Joe Rankin.and many others. I have performed on stage at the Savoy theater and on Stage at Centre 200 ,The Louisburge Playhouse and many other venues throughout Cape Breton. I play many songs from the sixties and the seventies and enjoy also playing my own material http://www.facebook.com/leestewart

Story behind the song

After my son had left the Island to go to university,Ihad thought about my own journeys away from home and how while working and being away I longed for my home and friends,Itis a song about the beauty and the love for ones home.
