Growing up in Atlantic Canada, I've been exposed to several cultures such as French, German and Celtic. These all play a part in my music but I've always been drawn to mid-western American rockers like Bob Seger, John Mellencamp, Neil Young and Tom Petty although there's nothing like our great home-grown bands, The Tragically Hip and Blue Rodeo, my personal favourite.
Our region is a breeding ground for songwriters and musicians though the small town environments offers little support for new talent. As the four of us travel here and there to play for small bar-crowds, I know its exactly this kind of experience that made my heroes great.
