BIOGRAPHY
Darryl Clayton
as Jon Bon Jovi - lead vocals/guitar
Front man "Jon Bon
Darryl" is a dynamic stage performer with an incredible voice that has
often been compared to Jon Bon Jovi. He has studied voice with Roy
Petty and Juno Award winner Cindi Cain. Somewhat quiet and modest off
stage; people are always shocked when he bursts onstage and works the
audience into a frenzy. An extremely dedicated bandleader, over the
years he has evolved to cover a diverse repertoire that features
everything from classic rock to dance and funk. His ability to sing
such a wide range of styles, his determination and strong work ethic
accounts for his success in and around Winnipeg and south west Ontario
where he is almost always booked at one of the top clubs or social and
charity events. He has also opened for such rock legends as Trooper
and Harlequin. However it was his uncanny resemblance and comparisons
to Jon Bon Jovi that finally convinced him to develop the concept of
Bed of Roses.
Rick Kemp as
Richie Sambora - lead guitar/vocals
Rick is an
unmatchable "Richie Sambora"! Not only astounding on lead guitar,
Rick's vocals and ability to handle harmonies compliment frontman
Darryl perfectly to create the ultimate duo just like the real thing.
Always a huge Bon Jovi fan, Rick looks back on one drunken night about
12 years ago belting out the harmonies to "Bed of Roses" on a crowded
dance floor. While his dance partner may not have been impressed,...
his dream is realized today playing the role of Richie Sambora in
Canada's #1 Bon Jovi Tribute. Rick has been in and around the Canadian
music scene since the mid 80's. A graphic designer by trade, when Rick
isn't kickin it with BED OF ROSES he is busy designing for print and
broadcast television.
Gilles LeSage
as Hugh McDonald - bass guitar/vocals
Gilles is a
talented self taught musician who has been involved in the Winnipeg
music community since 1987. His funky, solid groove on bass guitar is
ear-catching and irresistible. While playing in the local club scene
he has also been a part of some great recording acts. Gilles has
performed throughout Canada from Thunder Bay ON to Victoria BC and
even ventured to a chilly Yellowknife, NWT. After taking a short break
from the "scene", he is excited to be reunited with great friends and
fellow musicians with BED OF ROSES. When Gilles is not belting out
awesome bass lines with BED OF ROSES he is "flying high"… while
working for an airline traveling all over the
world.
Rob Mills as
Tico Torres - Drums
Lovingly known as
"The Beef", Rob grew up on the road with his musical family traveling
all over the country. A talented self-taught musician, his own career
began to take off. He found himself playing in the Casinos of Winnipeg
and in the finest clubs all over Canada. He has opened for such bands
as Platinum Blonde and Honeymoon Suite. He also did a stint with a
Johnny Cash tribute. He loves playing to large audiences and is
looking forward to traveling the country and across our borders to
play for enthusiastic Bon Jovi fans. Darryl and Rob go back to the
early 90's when the played together in a cover band for over a year.
After losing touch they are glad to have joined forces again to make
Bed of Roses a reality.
Trevor Uruski
as David Bryan - keyboards/vocals
Trevor has played
with numerous bands in the club scene across western Canada and North
West Ontario since 1984. He was an original member of the ABBA tribute
Supertrooper which has performed since 2000. While touring with
Supertrooper, Trevor performed in many Casinos and Summer Festivals.
