Michelle and her sister began writing and performing songs for their neighbours and friends, when they were very young. In Grade School, Michelle found an additional creative outlet in the theatre.

Experiencing a deep love for acting and the theatre, but missing her musical roots, she joined the Grindstone Blues Band in 2012, as the lead singer, until the group disbanded in early 2015. Along with Dave and Andy Fur of G.B.B., it was decided that an exciting new band was just around the corner, waiting to be formed. Now she is thrilled to bring you a fresh, sexy, sassy take, on some of the most dynamic early blues numbers, with the Dirty Blues Band. Let’s Get Dirty!

Moving to Montreal at age 16, David formed a couple of bands, wrote and recorded a handful of original tunes, and attended university, studying electroacoustic music.

Spent 10 years performing and composing electronic and film music and as a performing and touring member of the CECG, and a founding member of the Canadian Electroacoustic Community.

1987 brought Dave to Toronto where he co-founded the Ellis John Blues Band in Waterdown, playing live at parties, social halls, northern retreats and more than a few sketchy spots.

Currently immersed in the world of music retail, Dave co-founded Grindstone Blues, winding down the project in 2015.

Currently ramping up the acoustic world of The Dirty Blues Band, David's interest in country blues, slide and fingerstyle opens a new expression of acoustic blues reminiscent of his early days playing his first guitar.
