This week on Food For Thought, I profiled Alan Miceli. Alan is a composer/guitarist/pastry chef on Salt Spring Island, BC. His day job is at the Salt Spring Coffee Company Cafe in Ganges, but his other chief passion is music. Listen to the audio file. Alan grew up in Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, where he learned how to play the guitar, and had moved to Toronto to continue his music studies. A keen interest in meditation led him down a different path, however, and it was during his years working at a meditation retreat that he learned the food end of things, and a stint at Wanda’s Pie in the Sky in Toronto solidified his expertise at pie making! It was when Alan moved to Salt Spring Island that music once again started to play a larger role in his life and he has now recorded two cd’s which you can find out more about on his website.

Thought you would like to know Alan Miceli’s Mocha Java has made it into the top 40 in the U.S. He is being played from New York to Baton Rouge,from Missouri to California, and from B.C. to Quebec. His CD’s now listed on CD BABY.
On a 150-station folk radio network, some Canadian, mostly American–the ONE MEAT BALL CD came in at #38, with Mocha Java being one of the top two songs for the month of January.
There were only four other Canadian acts ahead of the NO. 38 listing.
all my love,
Alan says “multo bene” Absolutely everyone he knows must have been listening to your show.
