     I can’t think of a time  when I wasn’t playing, learning, performing, writing, recording, or listening to a song.  Music has played such a huge part in both my personal and professional life, I really don’t know  where I would have been without it.  It’s taken me all over Southern Ontario, to Montreal, Quebec, Austin, Texas, and to the outskirts of New York City. When I look through my Facebook friend list, or thank you cards where the comments on this website were taken from, I’m amazed by the incredible people I’ve met, performed and worked with, or for, in the past 25 years.
       I do and have done almost every occupation one can do in the live music and DJ industry: performer, entertainer, comedian, vocalist, frontman, sideman, studio musician, teacher, record producer, synth programmer, recording, mixing, and mastering engineer, song arranger, songwriter, sound tech, lighting tech, roadie, disc jockey, MC, stage manager, booking agent.  I know there’s a book in all that somewhere...
      Having a hand in all these facets of presenting and producing music, both on and off stage, has given me a vast and unique background of skills and expertise,  one that I bring to every booking. 
        I’ve been fortunate and grateful for the people who made that leap of faith and booked me and rebooked me, who not only thought that what I did was well worth what they spent, but were impressed enough to recommend me to their friends, families and coworkers. 
      I’d like to think that it was because, at the end of their night, when the house lights came up, and the cabs lined up outside to take them home, they knew that the best times in life are the ones spent dancing on the floor, or singing along with the music in the air, surrounded by the people that matter most, their friends and family, and that it was the entertainment, be it live or DJ, that played an immeasurable role in making that good time come to life.  
           Like all industries, the music business, its technology, and listeners’ tastes change over time, and I’m looking forward to growing and continuing to be a part of its future.   The one thing that will never change is my dedication to providing the highest level of professionalism and service, with more good times to come, for all my clients and fans, past, present, and future.  


Thank you all,
