ABOUT WILDCARD

Debbie has always had a passion for music. In high school she joined her first band which took her on the road for a couple of years. Debbie then took a position with a national retail chain and it was during this time she was involved in Calgary's first singing telegram company. Debbie later took on a role with a major record label where she was employed for many years as a promo/sales rep for southern Alberta and Saskatchewan.

She has performed jingles and sung on numerous projects in the studio with other artists. Debbie has played in many bands over the years and is happy to say that she is one of the original founding members of Wildcard.

Gary has been a drummer since his early twenties. He started his musical career playing the Cabaret circuit in Calgary. Gary would often freelance for many groups and enjoyed participating in various local jams. Gary performed in numerous groups as opening acts for Prism and Emerson Drive. He is proud to be one of the original members of Wildcard!

Mark was born in Scotland at an incredibly young age. He learned to play guitar as a teenager in a desperate attempt to get girls to like him. As a child of the 80s, he was heavily influenced by Glam Rock and Heavy Metal bands that either dressed like women or sang about the devil... Mark is still quite confused about that to this very day.

Having lived in Scotland, England, Saudi Arabia and now Canada, Mr. McKegney has been there, done it all and got the t-shirt - which was then promptly returned because there was a weird stain on it that gave him the screaming willies.

Mark loves playing anything with 6 strings on it, but mainly plays Gibson and Ibanez guitars, as well as Jeffrey's bass when he is not looking. His musical influences are extremely varied, much like his waistline. His guilty secret is a CD by The Spice Girls, which he keeps hidden behind the toilet cistern next to his DVDs of the Twilight Saga.

Above all else, Mark loves being in a band with musicians that share his weird sense of humour (See biography for details).

Jeff has been playing bass since he was 12 years old playing the Toronto bar scene as a teenager. He then pursued a career in the record business helping A list artists achieve their dreams and goals. He is a successful songwriter who has had some airplay and has even written a song that appears on a Fred Penner album. Now that's eclectic!
