He has performed extensively throughout North America, Australia, and New Zealand, writing and playing with members of such popular Canadian bands as The Northern Pikes, Motherlode and the Lincolns. His bands have shared the bill at country music festivals with legends such as Reba McEntire, Glen Campbell, Hoyt Axton, and Asleep at the Wheel.
Dean’s 45+ year career has spanned many genres, from studio session player, orchestras and musical theatre, to jazz and swing, country, rock and pop bands. He has co-written three Canadian top 20 hits, songs for musical theatre as well as dozens of jingles and instrumental pieces.
