| In 2002, DDBB looked like this. From left to right: Gerry Norris; Rob Clark; Dave Dillon; and Gerry Felker. Norris can play just about anything that has been recorded on lead guitar. Clarke has a deep growling voice, and is a fine harmonica player and guitarist. Felker is a rock-solid blues drummer. Clarke and Norris formed "Blues for Youz" in 2004, after a hiatus from electric blues. Felker played bass with the folk ensemble "Three Penny Piece" and is found in studio sessions and as an accompanist. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Jake Levesque is a classically trained musician with diverse tastes that embrace just about everything that has been played or composed! His contributions to shows such as "Blues Blooms" with DDBB are both on the rocky side as well as the sensitive. He is the male voice of Mosaic, a composer, arranger, song writer, musical director of several choirs and shows and the backbone of both Magenta and Java. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Rob Munroe is a hot, hot sax player who came to DDBB while playing in several project with some of the finest musicians in London. The pace of playing excelerated as one band became a hot commodity. So much so that he had to bow out of DDBB. In his spare time he's the full time owner of Music Aid in London, Ontario. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| DDBB was blessed by the opportunity to have Joe Edmonds fill in for Creg Johnston one night. He has played with a "who's who" list in the entertainment industry. He is a perrenial nominee in the Jazz category of the Jack Richardson Awards. His resume is phenomenal! You might want to check out his website at this link. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Mark Henning is a local legend in the London jazz scene. DDBB was given the gift of chance to feature Mark as guest performer at a coffee house/house concert style gig at Old East Studios in February of 2008. Because his tastes are similar to those of our own Tim Dillon, he periodically plays with us when Tim is unavailable.

| Jerry Vickers was a gift to the band from some greater power. He played several years with DDBB until the band began playing more gigs outside London. His sophistication and eclectic tastes in music have made him an invaluable member of several ensembles including the band Raucous. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Creg Johnston brought a well-honed musicality to DDBB. He not only played hot sax, but brought sweet, sensitive sounds out of it too. In addition, he added, not only flute and percussion to the mix, but some song-writing talent and vocal ability as well. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
