The band is fronted by saxophonist and music instructor Randy Morrison and features singer Leona West on piano, with a back end of Marc Gokkes on guitar, Rick West on bass and Tim Semeniuk on drums. Midnight Lace has an old time rock & roll, classic rock and blues playlist with a zest for celebrations and lively performances. The group was formed during the pandemic and have been playing around at a few pubs and restaurants. Notably, two band members have previously served in the Canadian Armed Forces. Drummer Tim Semeniuk was a full time CAF musician with the rank of Corporal from 1976 until 1983. Tim attended the Canadian Armed Forces School of Music in Victoria BC and played in the Royal 22nd Regiment Band in Quebec City, Quebec. Bassist Rick West played in the Vancouver Regimental Band. Included in their playlist on Saturday night is Midnight Lace’s new single “Samba Girl” that is generating interest and more than seven thousand views on YouTube in the first few months! Show starts at 7:30 PM downstairs.
