BTU – Bentall Taylor Ulrich
Powerhouse super group of Canadian songwriting royalty – Barney Bentall, Tom Taylor and Shari Ulrich first played in November 2007 at a song-writer concert on Bowen Island. Their collaboration grew from the enjoyment for both artists and their audiences. A year later, recorded “Live at Cates Hill”: an eclectic mis of the character, voices and songwriting talents of these three unique artists . . . or, as someone said, two Canadian legends and the number one draft pick!
