GUITAR/VOCALS

Phil lives and breathes music. From his beginning in modern church worship, Phil has expanded his musical palette across all styles. Most notably in bands like The Grave Misunderstanding , where he wrote off kilter rock songs, to Geomance, his electronica project, Phil is constantly creating and performing. When not on the road with Big Shiny Toons, you can find Phil playing in his acoustic duo, Cellar Door, alongside Nick Swan, where they develop modern and classic pop and rock songs into folk songs with a twist. When  Phil isn't performing, you can find him on the ski slopes, or hanging out with his son on the beach.

Reaching critical acclaim with hardcore band AnuBeginning and gaining Canadian wide airplay and success in Gracie Mae, music has taken him across a large chunk of Canada's soil, sharing stages with some huge names in the alternative music community.

Brian has seen stages small and large throughout Ontario, sharing them with some hug acts in the funk, soul and Motown scene. Brian also plays with one of Windsor's premier wedding and party bands, Eclipse, which is an incredible busy top 40 band, so if you don't see him with us, he's usually with them! When Brian has downtime you can catch him skiing, cycling, hiking and exploring cool places around the world!

BASS/VOCALS/VIOLIN

You may see us refer to him as ''sometimes Nick'', or ''young Brian'', but Nick is an integral part of the BST family. When Brian has commitments, Nick flies into action. He has stepped up and worked incredibly hard, to great success to be our ''sometimes'' bass player. Nick is a multi instrumentalist, playing bass, violin, guitar, keys, drums and splitting his time between many other groups, as well as with duo Cellar Door with Phil. We refer to Nick as ''one of the most interesting people in the world'', as he brings his knowledge of music, and sense of humour to the group. when not out playing, you can find Nick in his home studio, or learning about the meaning of life.
