From the honeymoon capital of the world, Niagara Falls, singer/composer/multi-instrumentalist/DJ/producer DEE, made the move to Montreal at the age of 18 where he built his home studio and completely destroyed his credit line....
Going solo in 2001, DEE went to work non-stop on his special blend of electro-pop and dance-rock. His 5-song EP released in 2003 snagged Hollywood attention landing DEEβs catchy songs in indie films and TV series including βGreyβs Anatomyβ(ABC), βPunkβdβ (MTV), βRoswellβ (Fox), βOne Tree Hillβ (Warner Bros), βTru Callingβ(FOX), βLas Vegasβ(NBC), βGhost Whispererβ (CBC), βJoan Of Arcadiaβ(CBS), the Ford Edge commercial airing Winter/Spring 2007, and many more.
Closer to home, 5 songs by DEE have also been featured in Ricardo Trogiβs latest Canadian flick βHorloge Biologiqueβ. It includes the first single and video from the album soundtrack βLetβs Have a Rendez-Vousβ featuring the voice of Mel, a long-time collaborator of DEE.
Produced by DEE himself, his long awaited debut album has been released in Canada in March 2006. Lyrically playful and melodically ambitious, DEEβs power pop is filled with satisfying hooks that remain with you for days afterwards.
