He played his first gig in 1977 in his home town of Medicine Hat, Alberta. In 1982 he left “The Hat” to begin touring as a professional musician with several different heavy metal bands. Don quickly became known for his ability to quickly fit into any band as a lead guitarist, and developed a reputation as a dependable, “hired gun” for any rock group who needed a guitarist on short notice. In 1986 he moved to Ontario to tour with a band called Crackers, a popular rock/novelty act in the Hamilton/Burlington area, with two albums to their credit. In 1988 Don received a diploma in Recording and Engineering, which gave his live performances added dimension because he better understood the meaning of “quality sound”. Between 1989 and 1996 he began a heavy touring schedule in Western Canada. For fifty out of fifty-two weeks a year, he played with a band called the Lizard Brothers, a classic rock band known for their heavy Beatle’s influence. Don took a
break from touring in 1996 and settled back into The Hat.
After a nine year hiatus, the axe beckoned, and in 2005 he
formed two new duos: The Replacement Parts and The Chameleon Brothers.
Within one year of coming out of retirement, both bands were
pre-booked for a year and half. In the summer of 2007, Don moved to Peterborough, Ontario. He recently joined forces with Jon Ryttersgaard, an up and coming musician with a great country vocal style. They named their duo “Pure Hazard” and are looking forward to playing gigs in Peterborough’s thriving music scene. DON
