SEEKING

Band to Join.

ABOUT

Experienced and capable guitarist/vocalist/key/keytar player looking for a working group. Not into jam/basement bands, and not really interested in keyboard "only" jobs.

Ideally...I'm looking for a PTBO area group to join and play lead or rhythm
guitar and keys, and share lead and harmony vocals.

Some background: I’ve played professionally and semi-professionally since my teens, toured with Gaslight in the 1970’s, and since then have worked with a number of groups and recording projects. SOCAN, CARAS (and withdrawal AFM ) member. JUNO award judge for 2023 (Adult Contemporary Album of the Year). Recording credits include writing, producing and playing guitar & keyboards on Trollie’s 1986 album, “Cruisin’”, and Major Hooples' last single "Sunnyside" (2012). For much of the last decade I was a member of Major Hooples Boarding House.
To contact: I'm on FB....Brian Tozer...or email indy47ca "at" y_h_o "dot" ca .
