At 16 the band got back together for one last year and at the time Brad also played in a band with Canadian idol runner up Rex Goudie who he went to High School with. Now 25, he has matured into an extremely versatile and revered guitarist with a smooth heart warming voice. He has shared the stage with such big names as Ron Sexsmith, Wide Mouth Mason, Jim Cuddy (Blue Rodeo), The Guess Who, Jordan John, etc. and has opened for some great Canadian artist like Jack De Keyzer (2003 Blues Artist Of The Year), Canadian folk legend, Valdy(Country Male Vocalist Of The Year and Folksinger Of The Year), Colin Linden (Guitarist and Producer for Colin James) David Francis and Jimmy Bowskill among others. He has also accompanied (on many occasions) one of his favourite artist and friend, Juno nominated Dayna Manning. He also gave private guitar instruction to Pop superstar JUSTIN BIEBER (For his Youtube video of "Cry me a river" By Justin Timberlake) and recorded his backing acoustic track at his Stratford Idol performance when he sang "So sick" by Neyo (Which can also be seen on Youtube).
