Johnny James


Johnny has performed extensively on CBC radio and television plus he also was on stage with Don Gillies production of the musical ‘Hair’. Johnny’s strong vocals have been heard with Dutch Mason, Matt Minglewood, as he played the A and AA circuit from the East Coast to West Coast and the USA. The blues guitar is his other strength and he can make it ring! Johnny is registered with the Canadian Composers and Authors. Johnny’s latest challenge has been to bring with the GreyNotes his many original compositions to the recording studio and live audiences.

Cathy Davis


Cathy spent most of her life living the blues. Born in St Andrews, Scotland, she moved to Canada in 1966. She debuted on Television with brother James singing ‘Nobody’s Child’. Most appropriate because Cathy was born legally blind.
 
She writes, sings and plays bass and rhythm guitar. Her repertoire includes Janis Joplin, Stevie Nicks and Koko Taylor, everything from classic rock to country and jazz standards plus her original compositions.

Garnet Hunt


Garnet has played bass since the 60’s when he was with the Vancouver Playboys. He has for the last 10 years also been playing classic rock with the TimeMachine in Vancouver. Since moving to the Island he has worked on finding the right combination of players to make being an old musician, fun. The GreyNotes are really making that work, with the added bonus of working on Johnny and Cathy’s original compositions.

Gerry Bird

Gerry was inspired to play music by listening to the Beatles and the Stones (who wasn't back then) and many other bands in the "British Invasion". He has been playing professionally for 40 years, including 2 years on the road (in his 20's), 3 seasons playing as the house band at the Kimberley ski hill, and lots of weekend work with various country, rock and roll and blues bands over the years. Gerry was encouraged to play at age 14 by his grandfather who bought him his first set of professional drums, which he still uses.

Gerry has a great love of many different styles of music, whether it is practicing, performing or just hanging out with friends making music. It has been and continues to be a real joy in his life.
