 Nick Gilder and Sweeney Todd
 
Sweeney Todd was Nick’s first group and earned their rock wings playing in every conceivable  venue in  the seventies,  Nick and Jim were the founding members.  
Earning multi Juno and #1 multi platinum status, these songs are still heard on the radio, reminding  us of  long hot summers,  the soundtrack of our lives
These days Nick and Sweeney are  rocking the Festivals, Casino showrooms, Fairs, etc. with classics like,  Hot Child in the City, Roxy Roller, Here Comes the Night, You Really Rock Me, Let Me In etc.   
Its still a kick to sing the songs, and hearing a crowd sing along is truly motivating for me says Nick to New Music Express Magazines Keith Sharp in a recent interview  

More top 40 success with SHES A STAR , YOU REALLY ROCK ME,  HERE COMES THE NIGHT, WILD ONES,  CATCH 22 ,  and  RATED X  on the charts,   but  it was Pat Benatar who scored with that one, as did the Mega #1 hit  he wrote for Patti Smythe  THE WARRIOR,  

Throughout his illustrious career, Nick Gilder has written and recorded many Top 20 hits internationally having recent success with a song he penned,  WHEN THE LIGHTS GO DOWN, remixed by Armand Vanhelden, who scored wtih Justin Timberlakes, Get Sexy 

The years  have seen Nick  work with some of the worlds most famous Producers including the Beatles George Martin and Mike Chapman, Peter Coleman of Blondie, Pat Benatar etc. fame. Writing hits for some of the business’ top performers, including Bette Midler, Patty Smyth & Scandal, Pat Benatar and Joe Cocker.  The variety of artists who have covered his songs testify to his diverse influences, totalling over 20 million copies sold worldwide.

Ray Materick Band

Ray Materick is the son of an evangelical preacher, who had previously played saxophone, trumpet and clarinet in his own dance band, during the 1940s and 1950s. Materick’s recording career commenced in 1972, with the release of Sidestreets on Kanata Records, considered to be one of Canada’s first independent record labels. The label folded soon after Materick’s album was released.His major national breakthrough came with the release of Neon Rain in 1974 on Warner Bros./Asylum Records, featuring the hit single “Linda Put The Coffee On”. The album was produced by Eugene Martynec. Materick had been specifically signed by record executive Gary Muth as one of the first Canadian artists on the U.S. Asylum Records label, formed by David Geffen. A number of albums followed throughout the 1970s: Best Friend Overnight (1975) and Midnight Matinee (1976), both of which were produced by Don Potter and featured musical contributions from Daniel Lanois, as well as Fever In Rio (1978). Materick did not continue with Asylum Records, following the release of Midnight Matinee.
During the 1980s, Materick withdrew from music for a period of approximately eight years, assuming employment in a Toronto woodworking company. He later relocated to Hamilton, Ontario.

Materick returned to recording as of 2000, releasing seven albums of new material in two years, and has regularly released new material and compilations since that time. The majority of Materick’s later releases have been on his own label, King Kong Records.

In 2012, Materick was subject to two tribute concerts, in Toronto and Hamilton, respectively, by “Honouring Our Own”, an organization dedicated to honouring musicians, while living, who have made a lifelong contribution to Canadian music.
In recent years, Materick has been involved in a band project, “Peace On Earth”, with Keon Crosswell (bass, guitar) and Dan Kolthof (drums).
