-MICHAEL TAER: GUITAR & LEAD VOCALS- Guitar influences range from melodic players such as JEFF BECK, DAVID GILMOUR, JIMMY PAGE & MICK TAYLOR to more textural & innovative musicians like U.2.'s the EDGE, ANDY SUMMERS of the POLICE, ROBERT FRIPP & STEVE HILLAGE.
Favorite bands: LED ZEPPELIN, YES, HEART, PINK FLOYD, U2, JOURNEY, STING, PRINCE. To lesser known artists like: BE-BOP DELUXE, WALTER ROSSI, DALBELLO.
Michael has been playing clubs & bars in the Montreal area & Ontario since the 90's, his proficiency on guitar made him a 2 time finalist in the local FENDER Guitar-Wars competition. He's also known for hosting very popular "Jam-Nights" at the (in)famous "STATION-10" & "The CANDY STORE" in town. He also has done sound for local bands.
Unlike most musicians with several years experience, he never lets technique over shadow the main focus, which is always the song. His range as a songwriter can run from emotionally charged ballads & haunting instrumental tracks, to 3 chord pop dities & energetic rock tunes, with hints of funk, progressive, classical & modern jazz. His forte lies in not just lyrics, melodies, or arrangements. But to blend all of these elements, where & when they are needed.
