ABX
Underground rock from the tie-dye era

Neil Fowler (worked with George "Sax" Benson, Mandrix): guitar, vocals
Dave Morris (worked with Alberta Adams, Robert Penn, Bucknasty): guitar, vocals
Murray Nosanchuk (ex-Dougalls, Windsor Dukes): bass
Paul James
One of the most exciting and energetic Toronto-based Canadian musicians ... past, present and future.
Paul James is a Canadian cultural icon. A veteran entertainer, this player has seen all that this crazy music business has to offer. His talents as a guitarist, vocalist, band leader, stage acrobatic, and songwriter have allowed James to produce the music he loves for over three decades.
Paul James is a real musician's, musician. He is constantly surrounded by the worlds stage as big time players such as Mink De Ville, Bo Diddley, Bob Dylan, John Hammond, Spencer Davis, Lightnin' Hopkins, Jack Scott and Sunnyland Slim, to mention a few.
Paul James is a Juno winner (Canadian music industry award) in the Best Roots and Traditional Music category... not surprizing! And Paul has received two Toronto Music awards for Best Club Band and Best Blues Artist.
