The North of 49 band was conceived at the end of 2004 by Dan McVeigh who felt a need to find another avenue to get his songs heard by a larger audience in bigger clubs and festivals throughout Canada. Dan called on several other fine musicians who are also songwriters to form a band that could not only write great songs but also entertain an audience with a highly energetic mix of today’s country music hits, classic rock gems and original music. The band features Dan McVeigh on keyboards, acoustic guitar and lead & background vocals, Mike Roland, on guitars, lead & background vocals, Jarvis Mushka on bass guitar, background vocals, and Jim Bennett on drums. North of 49 is comprised of veteran musicians who have been performing for many years. Dan McVeigh is the leader of the band, on keys and guitar, has many years experience playing both as a solo artist and in groups including Today’s Child, Classified and Platinum Plus. He has recorded two albums and recently went #1 on “The Country Edge” (Canada’s top internet country station) with his single “You Are All I Dream Of”. He has won several songwriting awards and was nominated at the Ontario Country Music Awards for future country star of the year. Mike Roland has a diverse musical background and has played every style of music including rock, country, r & b. He's performed on stage with such notables as Steven Lee Olsen, Lisa Carr and played the part of Jake in a Blues Brothers tribute band touring throughout the US & Canada. Jarvis Mushka has played bass all over the world and has played with Beverley Mahood, Susan Aglugark and many more.
