I’m a guitarist / singer / songwriter for the band NothingBox. Born in Montreal, I moved to Toronto when I was 19 and started playing in numerous rock and metal bands. I currently live in Barrie with my gorgeous wife, two amazing kids (for real… I know everybody says that about their wife and kids, but if mine weren’t amazing I’d tell you….) and Boxer pup. NothingBox has been my creative outlet for almost 10 years now, and I pour my heart and soul into every song. To this point I’ve been playing and singing all the parts myself and recording the demos in my basement, 8-track studio. It was a solo project for years, but in 2008 I decided to add a bass player and drummer to the equation and start recording new material and playing some shows. We’ve also graduated to a shiny new 24-track studio which should bring some extra dimension to the recordings, not the least of which being a full, live drummer and drum kit. Now NothingBox is a “real” band, and I’m looking forward to reaching as many people as I can with our unique brand of rock.
