Meet the Band

Born and raised on the West Coast, our lead guitarist Brian's musical journey began in his teens and has since evolved into a lifelong love affair with the electric guitar. Influenced by the iconic sounds of the 70s and 80s, his playing style pays homage to the legends who paved the way. Brian's passion for the music he grew up with is evident in every note he plays. His guitar solos are expressions of his soul, reaching out to connect with audiences.

But Brian's love for music doesn't end with playing. As a devoted craftsman, he finds joy in building guitars as well, pouring his heart and soul into each instrument he creates. From selecting the finest tonewoods to meticulously crafting every detail, Brian brings the same level of dedication and artistry to his luthiery as he does to his playing.

Derek is the maestro behind the keys whose virtuosity and passion elevate our sound to new heights. Hailing from the laid-back vibes of the West Coast, Derek's musical journey is a fusion of classical elegance and the raw energy of classic rock.

Trained in the traditions of classical music and jazz, Derek brings a level of sophistication and finesse to our band that is truly unparalleled. But it's Derek's love for classic rock that truly sets him apart. Despite his classical background, Derek's heart beats to the rhythm of timeless classics, and his keyboard wizardry adds another dimension of richness to our group's sound. In our band, Derek isn't just a keyboard player—he's the master of melody, the architect of our sonic landscape.

Hailing from the picturesque town of Nelson, our lead singer James embodies the spirit of classic rock with a modern twist. With roots deeply entrenched in the musical landscape of Rush, 80s and 90s radio hits, and the iconic visuals of MTV, James seamlessly blends nostalgia with contemporary flair. His vocal influences include legends such as George Michael, Freddie Mercury, Axl Rose, and Jim Cuddy. Drawing inspiration from the laid-back vibes of the West Coast lifestyle, James infuses each performance with a sense of freedom and authenticity.

Jim is the unsung hero of our band whose bass lines provide the solid foundation upon which our sound thrives. Jim hails from southern Manitoba and was heavily influenced by the music of 60s and 70s rock and R&B. This includes British Invasion, Motown, and Canadian roots genres. Jim's musical journey is a testament to the power of rhythm and blues.

With his deep, bluesy vocals and mastery of the bass guitar, Jim brings a soulful edge to our classic rock repertoire. As a backup singer, Jim's harmonies add depth and dimension to our sound, blending seamlessly with James's lead vocals to create a dynamic and captivating sound. When he takes over lead vocals, his voice provides a soulful, bluesy dynamic to the setlist. But it's Jim's role as the anchor of our rhythm section that truly sets him apart—he's the soul, and the driving force behind our rhythm.

Rod is the powerhouse behind the drum kit whose high energy and relentless groove drive our sound forward. Hailing from Winnipeg, Rod's rhythmic roots run deep. His love for blues and 60s, 70s, and 80s rock pulses through every beat he plays, and keeps audiences stomping their feet. As a drummer, Rod is more than just a timekeeper—he's the heartbeat of our band.
