2009 Update:
Below is an interesting tidbit Preston had mentioned in our talks of ‘the road life’.
Current Country star Deric Ruttan (Guitar, singer and hit song writer) played in Preston’s band in 1992 through 1994. The Bracebridge born musician had 5 Top Ten singles, (including the hits, “When You Come Around”, “Shine”, and “Take The Wheel”), and earned him a “Best Album” nomination at the 2004 Canadian Country Music Awards. “Male Vocalist” and “Rising Star” nominations followed, as did the Grand Ol’ Opry appearances, and a high-profile national tour. In 2004 he was named “Best New Solo Country Artist” at the Canadian Radio Music Awards. Stateside though, Ruttan’s artist career was about to be eclipsed by his songwriting success.
Deric Ruttan has also co-written hits for Dierks Bentley. Bentley’s debut “What Was I Thinkin'”, was a #1 Billboard hit. Deric has written 24 hits to date for various top artists, but earned his dues touring at an early age with the likes of the ‘Bradley J. Preston Band’.

Hi
Hey Brad, I have just recently been introduced to a young group. They are really good. They are called The Mike Ure Band. They opened at the Harrow Fair this year and they finally got a gig at Cosmos at Cearsers Windsor for October 20th starting at 6:30 PM. If you have time or are in the area stop in and check them out. They met Michelle Wright this past weekend at the Erie Shores celebration. I know she got her start from you as well. If there is any way you could help them Get going, I am sure they woul appreciate it. Thanks for listening. One of your Oldest friends Patty(Turner)Boismier

This is absolutely awesome! I have tried for several years to get this music.
Two questions…can the money order be in U.S. dollars?…and,
does Blenheim have a Postal Code, like the U.S. has a Zip Code?
Unfortunately, I don’t get enough opportunities to do do business in Canada.
Thank you, thank you, thank you.
