When you’re as busy as Alan Doyle, you create music whenever and wherever you can. So, it’s not shocking to hear that his six-song EP, Already Dancing, was recorded in six studios across five cities in two countries – especially considering that last year may have been the busiest of his more-than-three-decade career. With Already Dancing, Doyle and his collaborators recorded wherever they happened to be. Featuring five original songs (including the foot-stomping first single “Nancy,” with The East Pointers) as well as Doyle’s version of the 1986 Spirit of the West classic “The Crawl” (with the band’s legendary co-founder Geoffrey Kelly on whistle and vocals), Already Dancing took shape in: St. John’s, Newfoundland; Halifax, Nova Scotia; Charlottetown, PEI; and Santa Monica, California, before Doyle brought the whole team together at the National Music Centre in Calgary to finish it off.
