THE DETAILS

Band Bios


THEDDA MARIE - SINGER
Born in San Francisco California, Thedda has been singing since the age of four when she started in church. She continued to sing through High School and various choirs. She has perfromed extensively in the US and Canada and her credits include radio, TV, concert halls and various movies. Thedda's programs include R & B, Swing & Jazz, and other HOT music styles. She has performed with the great Joe William of Count Basie fame, Michael Boulton, and mentored by Jay McShann, Dizzy Gillespie and has jammed with many other international musicians and players.


GLENNA POWRIE - KEYBOARDS
Glenna Powrie has preferred to devote much of her time to playing and composing fusion, jazz-funk, and crossover jazz. Powrie was born and raised in Vancouver, British Columbia, but she moved to the Big Apple in 1985 to further her career as a musician/composer. Her keyboard playing (which combines jazz with rock, funk, and pop) was influenced by fusionists like Herbie Hancock, Chick Corea, and Joe Zawinul, and her composing has been influenced by Corea's Return to Forever, Weather Report, the Yellowjackets, and the Brecker Brothers (among others). Another musician she worked with in the Apple was saxophonist Greg Osby, who produced her debut album, Asha.


LEE OLIPHANT - BASS
Since beginning his professional career as an electric bass player at the age of 14, Lee has performed with many well known artists. He is a member of Juno award winning Charlotte Diamond’s Hug Bug Band and has performed and recorded with Fred Penner, also a Juno award winning children’s performer. His career also includes musical theatre. Lee has also performed at many Canadian Folk Festivals and has toured in Europe several times as well as the Middle East with Chilliwack, Ellen McIlwaine, Freddy Roulette, and Cal Bachelor. Most recently Lee was happy to join “Lesismore” under the condition that he learn to play the upright acoustic bass and he has thrown himself into that challenge whole heartedly


DAVID SAY - SAX
Dave Say is a well-respected and versatile saxophonist. He has been a professional musician for 25 years covering all styles. He has collaborated with George McFetridge (Strange Weather) Claude Ranger (Dave Say Claude Ranger Duo) Al Weirtz (Say/Wiertz Band) Kevin Elaschuk (ESQ) Tony Wilson (Say/Wilson Group),and Above Ground Sextet to name a few


He has worked with various large and small groups such as Chuck Israels, Jill Townsend Bigband, Vegi, Now Orchestra, Hard Rubber, Douglas College nite Band, The Claude Ranger Jade Orchestra, Mike Allen Nonet, Tribute to Monk, Mark Helias Ensemble, Tony Wilson Sextept, Celtic Works, Harris Vanberkle Fusion Group, Eastwind Plus, Brad Turner Quintet, The Wow Bigband, Kenny Coleman, George Lewis, Oliver Lake, Michael Buble, Richard MuhalAbrams, Lynton Garner, Dee Daniels, The Supremes, The Contours, Michael Kaeshammer, Soulstream and many more


DON POWRIE - DRUMS
Don has always found his niche in Original bands. He’s found himself in Japan, Poland, Switzerland and many other countries laying down his rock solid beat for Grammy winning Jazz Fusion band, “Skywalk”. He’s also played extensively across Western Canada with band “Lois Lane”, whose singer Deanna Johnson went on to be featured in Rockstar INXS 2006


ROB HOLLINGSWORTH - GUITAR
He's played at Harpo’s, was a member of the house band at Mother Superiors in Victoria, played at the Barbary Coast with the great jazz piano player Miles Black and as a regular on the Princess Cruise ship lines. For years he taught at the Conservatory of Music in Victoria, then started teaching at the Langley Music School. He's played with the likes of Odetta, Charlie Musselwhite, and Delbert McClinton. He studied with the Romero Brothers playing classical guitar and at all the flamenco guitar gigs. In Vancouver he played with Kentish Steel and did the musical Jesus Christ Superstar. Rob has developed film scores for documentaries for Global TV. He is now the examiner for classical guitar (for the last 12 years) with Capilano College


GLEN PEARSON - SOUND
Glens new self-titled CD is finished and it turned out great! Glen co-wrote the entire album with his brother Lorne, and drew from his own experiences and insights from the crazy world around us. You should have seen the look on Producer Jerry Adolphe's face after hearing the final mix of "Relax" (have some fun), that song is designed to get people up and moving, and as Jerry said, "Relax my ass!" The song "Lovin Game" deals with the ups and downs of falling in and out of love, something everyone can relate to, and "Ordinary Man" talks about a guy who bites off a little more than he can chew with his headstrong woman


Glen can't wait to take his show out on the road this year, and will be hitting all of the major blues festivals in Western Canada . He will be touring with a polished five piece band and putting on a show guaranteed to get people out of their seats and on to the dance floor. Glen's philosophy of music is to put some fun back into it and give the people a night of pure entertainment that they will thoroughly enjoy, we hope you can be there too!
