Like many people cooped up during the pandemic, Graeme Shaw, known under the moniker Uncle G, returned to some of his earlier loves, including music. Living at the time in Tobermory, Ontario, Shaw began playing guitar again, started covering a myriad of songs, and crafting amusing birthday ditties he wrote for family and friends. Now with that passion for his art fully rekindled, nobody's laughing at Uncle G's latest comforting single "See You Soon" from his thoughtful, honest, genre-bending debut album Where I'm From released on Simcoe Sound Record Label.

Uncle G says, "See You Soon," with its soulful, old-school arrangement, was penned for his nephew Malcolm, who was born during the pandemic. As much as the singer kept tabs on Malcolm through phone and video calls, it didn't resolve the physical distance. "I lived 300 kms away from him so I was pretty isolated from him," Uncle G says. "I would talk to my brother on the phone pretty much every day, and I would always say, 'hi and bye' to him. Then I'd say, 'See you soon.' One of the first times I hung out with him, I played him the chord progression from the song while he laid in his crib."
