Amos Garrett - born November 26, 1941
Kelly Jay Fordham - born December 1, 1941

Born 5 days apart , these two icons of the international music world started making music together a mere 15 years ago when Kelly Jay joined Amos' legendary blues band, The Eh' Team. They knew each other a lot longer than that as they were both "spawned" from the Toronto Folk and Rock and Roll scene in the 1960's. Amos first becoming prominent with Ian & Sylvia Tyson's first band project-The Great Speckled Bird, and Kelly Jay scoring an international hit with his band Crowbar. The song, "Oh What a Feeling"(penned by Kelly Jay) received two prestigious awards this year, being inducted into the Canadian Songwriters Hall of Fame and also being named Song of the Year by SOCAN. The booming six-nighter blues club scene in Western Canada of the 1980's brought them to Alberta. Come join these two plus the rest of the Eh Team ( Brian Pollock, bass and 25 year vet of the band, and their new drummer, High River's own Kevin Belzner) as they prove that "It Ain't Over Yet"- Dine ( if you Wish), Drink, and Dance-the Three "D's"!

"You may know Amos for his famous solo on Maria Muldaur's "Midnight at the Oasis", but that's only a small part of what he's really put out there in the way of extraordinarily unique and tasteful guitar work. No one plays like Amos. No one."-Geoff Muldaur, 2010.

"Kelly Jay? He never plays the same thing once!"- Greg Godovitz, 2011.
