I am a Canadian songwriter who started in the 60’s as lead guitar for the Spasstiks out of Toronto, Ontario. The Spasstiks were voted by CHUM Radio as Canada’s number one band and opened the Toronto Sound Show at Maple Leaf Gardens in 1967.
Bob MacAdorey a famous Toronto DJ at CHUM also had us featured at the CNE for a multi-stage outdoor concert with a crowd topping 11,000 fans. Our hit song, Love”s Got A Hold On Me, reached number one on charts across Canada and lead to three years of constant bookings and touring all over North America. I’ve opened for the Animals, Ike and Tina Turner, Neil Diamond, The Guess Who, The Mandella, the Paupers and Hermans Hermits.
I moved on to solo songwriting and producing in the 80’s and 90’s in my recording studio next to CITY TV, Swan Sound. Now with the release of my solo projects Summer Six – Packs One and Two, I am presenting my songs, my way.
Hope you love them too!
Still Rockin’ after 50 years,
Rob.
