Hi, I'm Terry B. I Sing, play keys, Piano mostly, a bit of Harp and Write . I have a great time making music with my friends.
I have been fortunate to have played, toured and recorded with, and still do an amazing assortment of Musicians and musical Styles. My tastes are Eclectic as is my product. I've worked everywhere from Vegas to Dublin, played The Grand Ol' Opry in Nashville and went on to a Jazzy Blues gig. I have a small studio and record local artists from this area. Oshawa, in Durham County, is a few minutes East of Toronto. Oshawa, like most blue collar cities is rich in musical talent. Let me know if you're interested.
Hope you like my site and the few tunes I have here.
This cd includes the very finest of Musicians.... Bruce Gorrie/Soprano Sax, Rob Bulger/Guitar, Buster Fykes/Guitar, Howard Ross/Guitar, Brian Moore/Guitar, Albert MacDonald/Guitar, Rob Quail/Guitar, (you can never have too many Guitar players (-") DougSwain/Drums, Danny Sandford/Bass, Brent Eikhard/vocals,Bass on Old Bluesman, Frank Woodcock/vocals, Myself Vocals, Keys and Harp, Bass,on some.

An independent release, The Blues Daddy brings live music to the car stereo and the living room with a level of authenticity that's rare in studio-produced blues records. This release should be added to any collection of contemporary Canadian blues.

Seems to me we could spend a little more time with problems at home.These problems are being resolved but every time I turn on the News theres another puffed up Celeb/Politician/etc. type, who undoubtedly is selling him/herself and is more than likely insincere and quite possibly very ignorant of the problems he/she is promoting.Our First Nations people have needed a hand up for as long as I can remember, sadly its not a popular or trendy cause......

I spent time in "Old Montreal",a very posh part of town in one of the most beautiful cities in North America.Out the window of my room I watched this guy who was down and out.He was way out of sync with his surroundings but I guess he figured the pickings would be better there than uptown..La rue de skid,meaning Skid Row in English.

I originally wrote this in the third person.I:E: Archie Bunker kinda' guy's view of these kids.Everyone I presented it to didn't understand this and said the listener would be offended by me, what a jerk, blah, blah, blah.I, on the other hand like to think folks are a bit smarter than that but finally bent to the pressure and added an explanation in the lyric.I still feel this was a bad move but too late now.

This would make a very funny video.

The title explains it.

Title says it.

A friend and a real character, Steven C. Barr wrote this song.It was a Blues Shuffle in the Major key.I fixed it up to suit myself it has gotten Major airplay worldwide.

There are still disciplined, pro, Musicians out there.Sadly their grass is being cut by far less than Pro, players, lowering the standards bar to levels that would have been hysterically funny not that long ago.Now its just sad!"Uh ,we tried live music it wasn't working out so we're gonna have a DJ/Karaoke"......

Lyna worked the bar in a place I've played almost every Thursday for the last couple of years.She had a soft spot for the homeless and always helped them out if she could.
