Meet the Act
Stuart Turnbull - Vocals, Keyboard and Percussion
Stuart started drumming at age 9 and was performing by age 12. Career highlights include playing with the Juno award winning Powder Blues Band at the 2002 PNE, opening for the Great Big Sea and winning the Corporate Battle of the Bands as a member of the TELUS WebTones. Stuart is a natural and engaging front-man. He also plays Roland RD88 Keyboard, Gon-Bop Signature Congas, LP Timbales, LP Bongos and Zildjan cymbals.
Brian Meadows - Quite a few very nice electric, acoustic and Spanish guitars.
Brian co-founded PTC with Stuart in 2
... 008 - both having played in the TELUS WebTones for 5 years prior - he recruited Allan who had played with him in previous musical projects. When he's not playing with PTC you'll find Brian lighting up the stage with the popular Led Zeppelin Tribute band "The Ocean". Brian plays Fender, Gibson and Martin guitars with Fender Amps.
Allan Nakatsu - Bass Guitar
Rock solid on bass, Allan has been with the band since it was formed in 2008 - and hasn't looked back since!
Matt Pavan - Drums & Vocals
A former touring pro, and now one of Vancouver's most sought after drummers, Matt is as entertaining to watch as he is technically gifted. At last count Matt owns no less than eight professional and vintage drum kits (despite his wife's protests!), including Ayotte, Yamaha and Ludwig, with Zildjian and Sabian Cymbals. The author makes no representation about numerical accuracy - as Matt has probably bought another kit or two while this was being written!
