Unfortunately, The Grad Club is “temporarily closing” starting today. This sudden closure has affected the Outre-Tombe + Vrexiza show we had scheduled for May 9 at The Grad Club. We have decided to cancel the show for now. We are still committed to organizing another show in the near future. Refunds are being sent out today for those who already purchased the tickets for the May 9 show. We appreciate your support and understanding.
What a blow to the city to first lose The Mansion and now The Grad Club. We have a few ideas in the works for alternative venues in Kingston. You’ll hear from us again soon with another show. Stay tuned 🤘

Here’s a clip from my latest performance at @somethingelserecords . It was my first time messing around with a loop pedal and it was a lot of fun. I’m doing a series of these concerts to raise some money and gather donations for @foodbankktown . Also I’m using it as an opportunity to work on some new solo bass repertoire. Come check out some spontaneous musical creations, and if you have some extra food in your cupboard and free time Wednesday afternoon, come on down. Also, my new song “Crab Fight” is streaming now on all platforms.
I have some really exciting shows coming up next week! Lots of wonderful musicians and different types of amazing music. See photos for details.
Wednesday, 3:30pm at @somethingelserecords

I have some exciting news! I made my first CD. It's available for purchase now at Brian's Record Option, Zap Records, Something Else Records, and Ash Forest Hi-Fi. Stay tuned for some exciting announcements about a few EP release shows I will be playing in December.
Big thanks to @a.t.343 for painting the cover, @itsckdesign for the design, and @mollybrantphotography for the photo on the back. Of course, this record would not be possible without my amazing band: @veri_gooddrummer , @tiagocardosomusic , @pauljamesmorrison , @kornloops , @goodtime_bobby , @bunrab31 and Andy Love. Thanks to @baetzmatt for recording/mixing, and @saintclarens for mastering the project.
