Peter Willing February 1, 2024
Peter was born and raised in Langford, British Columbia. As a child he loved to play the piano and later found that singing and playing music would soothe his soul and fuel his optimistic spirit.
When the mania of the Beatles hit Canada, Peter became serious about music and formed his first band Bonded Stock, playing British wave music. That was in 1965 and he’s been playing ever since. Peter has performed lead vocals and played keyboards in many bands featuring music from Rock to Country, to his favourite, Rhythm and Blues.
Peter has an entertainment company and regularly produces music events and fund-raises for his community. Over the years he ran the "Dick Clark" National Singing Contests, judging and mentoring many talented artists. He also wrote and recorded a children's CD for his grandson called "Rockin Out with Ollie".
Peter has been blessed to have had a half-century performing with some amazing artists, many of whom have become lifelong friends. He continues to play live music as the lead singer with the Lateshift Band
