Born in Scotland and emigrated to Canada at 6 months with parents. Grew up in rural Ontario until 13, then moved to Burnaby BC and then to Nanaimo during teenage years. At 18 moved on my own to Lower Mainland and did various jobs until started working in a touring band, subsequently recording projects into the early 80s. After the band, embarked on a career in the HVAC industry primarily in design build engineering. Moved to PEI in 2008, where we rescued standard bred racehorses. Returned to BC and moved up to 100 Mile House area and the 108 Mile Ranch.
Married to Jennifer and we have a blended family of 4 adult sons, and our grandchildren. In 100 Mile area, I play maximum classic rock with my brother Colin in our duo called Dutch Courage.
