SEEKING
Band to Join, Vocalist, Bass Guitar, Drums, Keyboard, Background Singer, Harmonica, DJ.ABOUT
Musician/songwriter with some tunes on all platforms
Part time studio engineer.
Versatile but heavily influenced by the era in which I grew up.
Take older tunes and "funk it up"? ... yeah buddy! Do I remember the hay day in Toronto's live scene ... Teenage Head .. Goddo? Blues? Zep? You know it.
Any collaboration is an important part of the musical process, but it also makes for a hell of a good time.
Lots of gig experience but just love to get together and make some good noise. Fun? Yep

Day By Day
Day By Day Year: 2019 Genre: Rock
Love hurts - especially when all you are to the one you love is a convenience. "Get up and leave" is something that will come .... tomorrow. Day By Day is that story. The easiest thing in life is staying in place. Fear of the unknown keeps us cruising along with the familiar. Even when things seem derailed, human connection feels better than being ignored. Maybe tomorrow will be the day to make a change .... but .... that's tomorrow. You threaten to leave .... but who are you kidding? Things WILL change though. Tomorrow. Zoltan Horcsok delivers Jerry Agar's lyrics with a heavy punch in Day By Day. When they aren't making music they are chasing other pursuits but what difference does that make? It's all about the song! Day By Day features Bob (O.C.) Decker; lead guitar, and Dave Lewis; drums Recorded, mixed and mastered by Zoltan Horcsok & Lionel Pedro at Trench Recordings, Toronto, 2019 Produced by Zoltan Horcsok
