My musical life...
It started with writing that turned into a folk duo which became a 6 piece that turned into a new city, Fanshawe College and Creative Electronics which I left for a traveling 4 piece rock band which was replaced by a vocal trio, followed by the solo which became a very popular duo up in Grand Bend ending when I played bass and sang lead in a rock trio out of Toronto that ended with me as a solo again for seven years with stints as a karaoke host and “The Amazing Biff “ a children's entertainer. In 1997 I started Streambabies. We were an eight piece doing my original music. That morphed into a six piece then a solo and a duo with my wife
Wendy, DJ'ing and an Improvisational music group called Stream Team which transformed into the current trio called ART oF STREAMING. We have played the Eric Stach Free Music series, and performed at the Music Club and Museum London.
I, MYSELF am experimenting in instrumentation and styles. I have embraced the new electronic technology and picked up the ukulele.
… and that's just my musical side.
