Artist History
Sunny Lemon Tina was formed after September ,1998 when Stu Pike aka Sammy Bass (drummer - The Rave) invited Dave Bull guitar/vocals - The Rave) to a party in Westport at his friend Marty Crapper's (bassist) place. There, jamming ensued all night with Sara Harmer and Ross Kerr (Weeping Tile) also there joining in the fun. Barb Wilson appeared and ended up on stage with Dave, Stu and Marty. The foursome clicked and soon added Eric Bull aka Al (Joe & Al - keyboards). Eric now focusses on commercial audio with Joe and Al). The four remaining members began writing, rehearsing and recording tunes until the band's efforts culminated in a CD called "Sunny Lemon Tina".The members hail from Calgary to Toronto but now all live and play in the Kingston , Ontario area. Kingston is famous for such bands as the Tragically Hip, Weeping Tile, The Arrogant Worms, Haskell and the Cleavers, The Blushing Brides, and many more. |
