Sharky's name is synonymous with the Vancouver music scene. He has been in the music business for twenty years playing with various bands and working as a promoter. He started playing piano at age 7 and later experimented with the trumpet. The trumpet experiment went really bad; Unfortunately the lawsuit settlement states that I can't tell you exactly what occurred on that hot august afternoon with me and my trumpet, let's just say they tell me it wasn't a pretty sight. Sharky was quoted as saying: my instrument of choice is now the guitar which he also picked up in grade 12. Over the years this multi-talented performer has performed with dozens of top Vancouver musicians and continues to delight audiences wherever he goes, from his improvised humor to his vocal ability and stage presence. As a solo artist he acquired the art of playing the same song in a dozen different styles while transcribing another tune and eating chicken wings all simultaneously. Today Sharky has an amazing collection of really tacky shirts and if he looks familiar it's because on nights when he's not playing live [which is rare], you may find him talking to everyone [including himself] or up on stage jamming at any bar in the Lower Mainland.
