SUMMARY:Yukon Cigar
DESCRIPTION:Yukon Cigar was lit in 2005. The idea? To take an earthy\, hushed songwriting style and set it on fire. Now\, after years on the Toronto club circuit (playing the likes of Cameron House\, Castro’s Lounge\, C’est What\, El Mocambo\, Rancho Relaxo\, and the NXNE festival)\, mainstays Craig and Peter have taken to backyard parties and neighbourhood pubs\, just two acoustics and a growing list of standards. With countless songs in the fire\, here lies the promise of sweet sing-alongs to come.

SUMMARY:Mike Daley & Wendell Ferguson
DESCRIPTION:Mike Daley is a guitarist and singer based in Toronto. A professional musician for over 35 years\, Mike has toured and recorded with Jeff Healey\, Classic Albums Live\, the Killjoys\, Nine Big Dogs and many more. Mike is a longtime member of Fraser/Daley and he holds the position of Assistant Music Director at Church of the Redeemer in Toronto. Mike’s lecture-concerts in Toronto and Richmond Hill under the name ‘Dr. Mike Daley Presents’ regularly attract sellout audiences. For more information\, go to mikedaleymusic.com. \nBorn and still residing in Streetsville (Mississauga)\, Ontario\, Wendell became fixated on being a guitar player after hearing Chet Atkins play the instrument. Although he took several years of formal guitar lessons\, Wendell was off-and-running as a guitar player\, fueled more by listening to and emulating the recordings of some of his guitar idols: Chet Atkins\, Les Paul\, The Ventures and other guitar gods. Fast forward to 1998 and we find Wendell Ferguson releasing the first in what would be a series of solo albums\, mixing his guitar strengths with his off-the-cuff songwriting and his distinctive vocal styling. The first album\, “I Pick Therefore I Jam”\, was loaded with truly innovative work; not the least of which being a duet offering\, “If You’re Gonna Be A Cowboy”\, with Russell deCarle of Prairie Oyster fame – their effort earning a nomination for Collaboration of the Year at the 1999 CCMA Awards. Meanwhile Wendell’s guitar work was much in-demand\, and he was often called upon to tour in support of top-level Canadian artists\, including: Shania Twain\, George Fox\, Duane Steele\, Tommy Hunter\, Michelle Wright\, etc. Wendell Ferguson’s work has not gone unrewarded. He was nominated for a Juno Award (in 1995\, for Group of the Year with Coda The West) and he has been named the CCMA’s All-Star Band Guitar Player of the Year so many times that he is deemed no longer eligible. Wendell Ferguson was inducted into the Canadian Country Music Hall of Fame in 2014.

SUMMARY:Danny Marks
DESCRIPTION:This iconic rocker’s roots go back to the sixties as a founding member of Capitol Records’ group\, Edward Bear. After a span as a journey man session musician throughout the seventies\, Danny settled in to the club scene\, establishing a cult following as a genre bender in music and humor. \nA house band gig at Toronto’s famed Albert’s Hall led him to host his own nation-wide TV show\, Stormy Monday. Through the eighties\, Danny starred in CBC radio’s hit series the Hum Line. \nMost recently\, Danny Marks recorded two original music albums\, Guitarchaeology and True\, before paying tribute to Toronto’s R&B roots with Big Town Boy in 2005. \nDanny’s in his thirteenth year as the radio host of JAZZ.FM91’s Saturday night blues show\, bluz.fm. \nAs a child\, young Danny would lock himself in his room with a stack of 45’s\, an old Seabreeze record player\, and a fantasy of having his own radio show. More than a few years later this pre-pubescent propensity paid off.

SUMMARY:The Del-Fis
DESCRIPTION:I don’t know what The Del Fi’s are; the more I think about it\, the more I don’t know what to say. But I know it’s right\, and I know it’s good. I know it works. I mean\, it’s Jerry Leger’s thing\, but when I asked him what he would say The Del Fi’s are\, all he would tell me is that I (meaning me) am The Del Fi’s\, just as you (meaning you) are The Del Fi’s. And because you are you\, you understand. Don’t you? \nOkay\, maybe we should try this again. Jerry Leger is a Toronto singer/songwriter\, and one of the best in the world\, as far as I’m concerned. If you haven’t heard him\, you have no right to be one of these people constantly moaning about how music was so much better when people actually played instruments\, blah\, blah\, blah. \nJerry loves Bob Dylan\, Neil Young and John Lennon. Sometimes it sounds as though all three are fighting for space in his songs. But those songs are his own\, the product of a natural born storyteller with a sense of rhythm that would make Little Richard’s big toe shoot up in his boot. \nJerry’s songs hit deep in your soul\, but he also often loves just making music with folks just to flex some of his old time rock and roll muscles\, and explore some of the paths his songwriting normally doesn’t take. That’s kinda where The Del Fi’s come in. \nIt’s rock and roll that we all care about right? I’m sure you wouldn’t still be reading this if you didn’t agree. So I guess that does make you a Del Fi. Welcome aboard and grab an instrument\, we’ve got a show to do.
