Dr. Oxide was born and raised in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. It was his frequent visits to his grandfather’s farm that kept him in touch with his prairie roots - there among the wide-open spaces his creative outlook was influenced and formed.

The Doctor has been writing songs for over two decades. Several of his songs have become “headliner” anthems at various political and environmental benefits.

Over the years, Dr. Oxide has been a regular performer/activist at many festivals. He played at one of the first international conferences on acid rain and at many other environmental benefits including performances for saving the whales, renouncing uranium mining and for protecting the Wild Horses of Suffield, Canada's largest herd of wild horses.

He is a past Director of Greenpeace, Alberta, Canada and strongly believes that “there is no greater issue than the environment, our need to protect and enhance our habitat. It is time that we all become good stewards of our sacred planet earth.” 2005 was the warmest year ever recorded. Our planet needs you. The time for action is now!

Music has been part of my life ever since I first performed on stage at age 8 – playing the accordion, an instrument I still love to this day. I have always looked at life through art. Writing lyrics, painting and sharing songs have become a passion. I like to tell stories that make us happy or sad, laugh or cry or make us stop and ponder just about everything or anything. That’s what I do. I hope some of my songs have struck a personal chord.

"Thanks for taking the time to listen!"
