About Me

I'm a local Toronto Singer/Songwriter whose been a performing musician for over 10 years. I've been told that my "unique vocal style & angular yet tastful guitar chops" combine to create whats been often described as a "feel good" vibe. I play Bass for local Toronto bands Factor Fiction & The Russell Leon Band. I also play guitar with Sandi Marie & Under The Bus.www.factorfiction.us / www.rleonband.com / www.sandimarie.com
