He has gigged locally in Vancouver and Kelowna, toured across Canada, recorded with numerous bands and singers, served as musical director in a variety of situations, and on top of that he brings a passion to his playing that borders on being possessed.

Any gig Bernie is a part of is a good gig to go see.
