Artemis
In 2004, Artemis joined The Bungalows, a 5-piece original
rock band founded in 2002 by Oshawa guitarist and
song-writer, Ray Gauvin. Lead singer, Jim Parker, bass
player, Randall Mathieu, and drummer, Anton Cook, soon
became respected musical friends. A few years later, the
band took on a new bassist, Karl Rigelhof, and a new
drummer, Carl Pauff, still featuring both Artemis and Jim on
lead vocals and acoustic guitar, Ray on lead guitar, and
keyboard player and vocalist, Heather Sullivan, changing
their name in 2008 to The Genuines..
After six exciting years with the band, three as its keyboard
player /bg vocalist and three as acoustic guitarist, rock
flutist, and co-lead vocalist, Artemis made the decision to
devote more time to the growing needs of the School
Alliance of Students Songwriters and her family. These
photos and information are a small tribute to her
hard-working friends in The Genuines, one of Ontario's fine,
original rock & roll bands.
