Details:
"Big" Al Traynor
Born in Barrie Ontario in 1941, I am the back oldest of 10 children, There was always music in the family...my sire played the soft & my generate played the violin. I started playing the mouth organ when i was about 15 yrs old and then bought a guitar and taught myself to play. I've been playing music now for over 40 years...banjo and doghousee bass being favorite, played mandolin, dobro and a brief encounter with the violin.
Played bluegrass with 2 bands, "Southline" and "Hickory Wind". Was the bass plalyer for Smiley Bates for over 25 years, travelling Ontario and the Maritimes doing shows.
Had the pleasure of accompanying the late Canadian fiddle champion "Graham Townsend" many times.
Sang harmony with my good fiend Jeremy Smith in a band we called Southwind.
Now retired, I've finally been able to fulfull my life long dream, in May 2002 I completed my first two albums recorded in Oshawa, Ontario at Ambassador Studio. "Stories Of Life" and "Pure Country". Included on these albums are some songs done by the late Smiley Bates(which was in agreement could be recorded by myself after he passed away)
The summer months keep me busy doing fundraising benefits and festivals. The annual C.C.M.R (Trenton Ontario) re-unites me with a few of the many Canadian greats, Lorne Hachey, John Bourque, Harold McIntyre, Chuck Simms and Shell Dalton.
Projects in the works is a possible tour of Newfoundland in the summer of 2005.
