Brian Medway arrived in Canada in 1965. He immediately went about the business of starting a band. The Shades of Black was an R&B band that played many BC venues. In 1966 Brian and his manager put together Meddy's People comprised of ex British band mates from Southampton England and a Canadian drummer. They were signed to Quality Records of Canada that same year.
In 1975 Brian formed a blues based rock trio called Pegasus. They opened for the Rory Gallagher tour starting at the Kinsmen Fieldhouse in Edmonton, the Victoria Pavillion in Calgary as well as a large venue in Lethbridge. They completed their Western tour by opening at the Gardens in Vancouver. That same year they also opened for Kraftwerk in the Gardens in Vancouver.
Pegasus was a three man band that relied heavily on it's blues/rock roots. They carved an impression on the Canadian music scene with dynamic vocals, world class bass, tasteful, driving percussion and classic blues based guitar riffs. All songs played by Pegasus were written by Brian Medway.
In December of 1980 the three members of Pegasus reformed to record a heartfelt tribute to John Lennon. "Dear John" and "Photographs" were never released but the memory lives on.
Brian Medway is currently recording a number of songs for an album project.

Hi Brian, you found me, cool. Just listend to you music, great voice and guiatrs sound wonderful. I Was fortunate to visit Darren Trott's house, in Melbourne, last weekend and had a marvelouls time. You should see his collection; very impressive. He just kept handing 'em to me to play. Not many places you go in the world today and have that kind "Ric" fun, especially with someone as Darren, his wife Robin and two beautiful children. Take care and keep up the good music. I just got back into the states today - "gee but its great to be back home."
