HIs business, Boogaloo Productions, has been in operation since 2001, providing services to musicians both local and touring. Garnering a national reputation as a company that can be relied on.

 Born of an unquenchable desire to tell a story and break some hearts, Singer/guitarist David Guy formed Dust Radio in Vancouver in 1993. Inching his way back home over the following decade to the east coast the current edition of Dust Radio was formed in 2010. Comprised of Guy and drummer Elliot Dicks (The Monday Nights. The Novaks) and bass player Ian Cornelissen (The Domestics, Pilot to Bombardier). Sometimes described as "Blue Rodeo if Matthew Sweet was the singer" Dust Radio shares their pursuit of a "sound". Armed with a notebook full of songs and a warehouse full of tone the band is looking forward to releasing their fourth recording “ The Signal and The Noise” in the near future . Equally comfortable rocking a stage or acoustically delivering to a coffeehouse audience Dust Radio has but one master...the song!

The Liquorice Welts are comprised of veteran musicians David Guy, Colin Clarke, John Del Rizzo and Sean Harris . They present an eclectic mix of music ranging from Dolly Parton to Big Sugar. Crossing genres as easily and crossing the street! The Liquorice Welts show is an audience inclusive event where the sets are often determined by audience members spinning "The Wheel of Song" We play what comes up on the wheel and you could win a prize! Recently The Welts have added a night of Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers to their repertoire. The Welts Play Petty is a crowd pleaser to say the least! The Liquorice Welts, nothing hurts so good!
