David
David’s love for guitar started with guitar lessons in grade three. But it wasn’t until he first heard Deep Purple with Ritchie Blackmore that his passion for the guitar really took off. Decades later, when he was presented with the opportunity to play for the Highway Star tribute band, of course David jumped at the chance.

Doug-Portrait-smDoug
A piano and keyboard player from an early age, Doug has always loved playing ‘Deep Purple’ and has toured with many professional bands over the years. Now playing in his ‘Dream band’, his attention to detail in capturing the look and sound of Jon Lord continues to amaze audiences wherever ‘Highway Star’ plays.

Ross-Portrait-smRoss
Ross’s high level of skill and wealth of experience help to bring ‘Deep Purple’s’ music to life. He remembers learning how to play bass by listening to the music of Black Sabbath, Alice Cooper and Deep Purple, though he says” Purple was always my favorite!” Emulating the intricate and melodic bass and vocal lines of ‘Deep Purple’ is a challenge Ross meets flawlessly.

Nando-Portrait-smNando
