"I grew up in a house full of musical influences. There was always something on the turntable or someone visiting with a guitar". As a nephew of Canadian composer Harry Somers, Whitey Somers found an early love of music, a pool he most happily dove into.
"Music of one sort or another" would be a good way to describe my feel. No one style binds me, I let the music find me. From blues to folk & alt rock or country, Whitey's songs reflect the world at large.
Some of the projects Whitey has been involved in include "Sleight Of Hand" with Dave Bingham of Ugly Ducklings fame, "The Elders Of Zion", Celtic Rock units "Empty Flask" and "Strange Potatoes", 11 piece Alt. Country Group "The Barn Owls" with Craig Smith, Chuck Baker, Romney Getty etc., Reggae Band "Fire Temple" and many others.
Whitey's new CD "Happy Guy" (the followup to 2005's" YTCD") was produced by Craig Smith and Whitey Somers.
Now available @ CDbaby, itunes, spotify, apple music etc.
