You'll be guaranteed to dance the night away and have the time of your life, Willy and the PoorBoys delivers and more.

JOHN BOYD
John Boyd has drawn on a variety of influences to forge his compelling vocal style and solid bass playing. From CCR to James Brown to George Jones, John has done it all. He has been heard playing with Bryan Adams, Dr. Hook, Paul Butterfield Blues Band, The Animals and on numerous sessions and jingles. The creation of Willy and the PoorBoys in 1985 was a natural step in John's career, owing to both his uncanny resemblance to CCR'S John Fogerty and his "sound-a-like" voice. Composed of equal parts spirit , grit and conviction John's playing and strong soulful voice are the perfect combination to lead this Canadian tribute to Creedence Clearwater Revival.

ROB WALKER
Rob¹s talent as a multi- instrumentalist has led him to tour across Canada and throughout Europe performing with Dr. Hook, Paul Butterfield, The Marlaine Sisters and The Roosters. As a multi- instrumentalist, Rob's abilities on guitar, keyboards, violin and harmonica are an integral contribution to the band's authentic CCR sound.

TODD TAYLOR
Todd is no stranger to Canada's west coast music scene. In demand as a singer/ songwriter and guitarist, Todd's musical resume includes years with the much acclaimed Two Trains and Brickhouse. He is currently kept busy working as one of Vancouver's most recorded blues guitarists. Having "cut his teeth" on the music of CCR, Todd brings authority and authenticity to Willy and the PoorBoys.

LISA LAMBERT
Lisa Lambert has long been one of Vancouver's most sought after drummers. Through the chart topping music of Sue Medley, the driving Texas boogie of The Vaqueros, acoustic world beat of The Hightops and the urban blues of Tim Hearsey, versatility has been Lisa's signature. Her understanding spirit and the depth of her drumming are the vital forces driving Willy and the PoorBoys.
