Mike Plume - 8:30 NEWFOUNDLAND  Wait a few years, and the title track to his new album might very well be looked at as the quintessential three and a half minutes of Canadiana. But Mike Plume said "8:30 Newfoundland" couldn't have taken shape, had he not moved to Nashville a few years ago. Having lived everywhere from his birthplace in rural New Brunswick, growing up in Bonnyville, and when he first started out as a songwriter in Toronto were also keys."I can guarantee you I couldn't write a song like that while sitting in a ditch outside Glendon (a nothing happening rural Alberta village of 451 people where the mayor's been there for 30 years). The old cliché that you have to be away to realize how important home is, is very true," he said.
