Biography:

Peter (bass) met James (guitars, bass, vocals, songwriter) at University and they became friends. Deciding to form a band, which would eventually become DUNDAS, they added Dieter (guitar, vocals, songwriter) and his friend Wayne (drums).

Shortly before their only vinyl was recorded and released, Peter moved away and the band continued as a trio.

"Bloodshot In Your Eyes" was written and sung by Dieter (aka Schultz).

The B-side "Can't You Hear Me?" was written and sung by James (aka trcjt and Jaime).

A bit of historical trivia, the final half-track master for the single was recorded at Hamilton's famous Grant Avenue Studios. The single developed quite a cult following including various countries around the world in the PRE-INTERNET era. Sold more copies in Norway than in Canada!!! hahaha. Had a DJ in Czech desperate for a copy but unable to send money out of his communist country so he did a trade with me. Also had a DJ in Poland who needed a copy. And the 'biggy' for me was that punk icon JELLO BIAFRA bought some copies of all 3 releases but his favourite was the DUNDAS single. He first heard the INNOCENT EP at an after gig party and wrote down the details so he could source it after his tour was over.

There are a lot of comparisons to Neil Young. One guy wrote that when his Neil-Young-fanatic wife heard him listening to "Can't You Hear Me" she gave him shit for not sharing this Neil Young song she'd never heard before, with her.

James Taylor's Silent W. Productions released two other 7 inch EP's, one by Burlington-area band THE INNOCENT and one by Cambridge-area band TYRO. Silent W. Productions went tits up "before my ideas exceeded my money".
