ABOUT

A brief history (for what it's worth): Played over 1000 gigs/ shows across Canada since 1990 ... from small dives to pubs, theatres, universities, arenas & large festivals incl. co-headlining @ Big Valley Jamboree in Camrose, Alberta for 2 consecutive years (Beer Gardens Festival Stage) .... and Newfoundland's Salmon Festival sharing the stage with Nellie Furtado, Tea Party and Tom Cochrane.

Also appeared on Much Music (video only), Breakfast Television x4, Canada AM performance and house band for a day (w/ host Jeff Hutcheson), East Coast Music Awards (ECMA) Showcase, Keith's (beer brand) Kitchen Party Pier 22 Headliner … and much more.

Interested in a variety of possible situations: In particular, playing live local gigs or recording original music, teaching to touring

Most important is playing with good musicians, good people and having fun regardless the project
