BAND MEMBERS

ROY NiCHOL

LEAD VOCALS AS 'THE VOICE'

3P1C Roy.jpg

'Epic Journey' is blessed with having Steve Perry's 'brotha from another mutha' in the form of Roy Nichol.

 

Roy Nichol simply has the gift of 'The Voice', that silky smooth & powerful tenor that Steve Perry Era Journey Fans yearn for -- and it's what ensures that you Don't Stop Believing that this magical era will never end!

​

In addition to being a talented multi-instrumentalist, Roy is also an in-demand recording engineer & producer.

​

His effortless renditions of the Journey Classics will send shivers down your spine with a rare soulfulness reminiscent of Steve Perry - not an easy feat & not an easy claim!

​

Die-hard Journey Tribute Fans may remember Roy fronting the accalimed Journey Tribute Band 'Raised on Radio' in the late 80's.  Yes, this cat takes his Journey seriously & eats it for breakfast.

​

When he's not paying homage to Steve Perry's acrobatic tenor, he can be found on stages around the world as the drummer for legendary Canadian band 'April Wine'.

PETER TONg

KEYBOARDS/VOCALS/RHYTHM GUITAR

Peter Tong is a bonafide veteran in the music business, both locally & abroad.

 

He was a founding member in North America’s first Supertramp Tribute Act ‘Asylum’ from 1989-1993 as the primary Keyboard Player.

 

Upon disbanding, Peter enrolled in Toronto’s acclaimed ‘Humber College of the Performing Arts’ to further his studies in Jazz Improv, acquiring a Diploma in Solo Performance.

​

By 1997, he was off on tour around the world leading his own Top 40/R&B/Funk Quintet which stationed him in such diverse places as Seoul Korea, Beijing China, & Dubai UAE,  & capped his world-travelling career in 2000 performing with 'Johnny Danger' on the 'Grand Princess' Cruise Ship, travelling from Barcelona to Turkey.

​

Peter would go on to become an independent Jingle Writer in Toronto for TV & Commercials (some notable clients include City TV, MuchMusic, MuchMoreMusic & Global TV), while operating his Production company, 'P.T. Productions Music Services' providing Producing/Engineering/Recording services.

​

A Journey fan since he was 10, and having a similar keyboard style & musical background to Jonathan Cain, Peter recreates with precision, those classic keyboard riffs and sounds that are part of the trademark Journey sound.
