Van Morrison Tribute

In the early 1980s, Moss Stanley formed one of the Cleveland’s top society bands, Nitebridge. Ace Chase, known as the Golden Voice, has been Nitebridge’s front man for over 10 years.
Stanley, Chase and the rest of the group continue to bring the house down when it comes to live performances.

Dussault’s career in music is more or less his destiny as opposed to a vocational choice. He was born the son of a bass playing father who experienced some success in the musically fertile 1960’s. Colin’s father Artie played bass in several of the top groups that worked in and around Cleveland in the late 1960’s & early 1970’s. In addition to the Crawling Group and the Blackwelles his father worked in the United Artist Records recording group Audi-Badoo which featured members of the aforementioned bands in addition to former members of the Tree Stumps.

Growing up, Colin spent much of his time listening to his father’s vast record collection while building an impressive audio library of his own. While doing so he was exposed to and absorbed a myriad of musical styles. His musical influences range from Blind Willie McTell, Muddy Waters, and Little Walter to Country Joe and the Fish, The Youngbloods, Woody Guthrie, Doc Watson, Cream, the Beatles, Bob Dylan, the Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, Frank Zappa, The Left Banke, Buffalo Springfield and Lyle Lovett.

While maintaining an impressive list of local club appearances, sometimes working 4 to 6 nights per week, he and his band have also shared the stage with such luminaries as Bo Diddley, the Fabulous Thunderbirds, Buddy Guy, Junior Wells, Bad Company, Robert Lockwood Jr., Carey Bell, Brian Auger, James Cotton, Blood Sweat & Tears, Buckwheat Zydeco, Eric Burdon, Jeff Healey, Koko Taylor, and Storyville.

Dussault’s tenacity and talent have secured him a secure place alongside Cleveland area musical stalwarts like Michael Stanley, Robert Lockwood Jr., Wallace Coleman, Crazy Marvin, Mr. Stress, Travis Haddix, and Greg Bandy.
