The Song Talk Radio Meetup 

(Formerly The Songwriters Cafe, The Songwriters Meetup). I first went to this about a decade ago. I started hosting not too long after. The podcast grew out of this.

Songwriters meet once a month in a bar to present songs in progress and get supportive but useful feedback from other songwriters. Now being held alternatively in person in Toronto and via Zoom.

The Parkdale Hookers

I played bass and shared songwriting and vocal responsibilities with the very talented Mark Jeftovic.  Kinda power-pop punk stuff with a corporate edge.
