So who is who in 'Bed of Roses' and what are
they all about?
Darryl Clayton as Jon Bon Jovi
where he is almost always booked at one of the top clubs or social and charity events.
He has also opened for such rock legends as Trooper and Harlequin. However it was
his uncanny resemblance and comparisons to Jon Bon Jovi that finally convinced him
to develop the concept of Bed of Roses.
Eugene T. Romaniuk as Richie Sambora
BED OF ROSES is ecstatic to have such a seasoned, professional guitar player to fill the
role of "Richie Sambora"! Eugene was born smack in the middle of Canada in our
hometown of Winnipeg. He has also resided in Toronto and Regina. His introduction to
music came at the age of six with weekly piano lessons. At the age of 12, after seven years
of piano, Eugene discovered the guitar through his Junior High guitar program and was
placed in Los Guitarres, an advanced program in which he received classical training in
addition to concert and touring experience. In High School, Eugene dabbled in the jazz
band and continued his guitar studies thereafter with private instruction from Tim
Cumming. In the 20 plus years Eugene has been in the music business, he has been a
member of a number of the top cover bands in Winnipeg. His influences include Pat
Metheny, Steve Vai, Michel Cusson and Steve Lukather.
Gilles Lesage as Hugh McDonald / Alec John Such
Gilles is a talented self taught musician who has been involved in the Winnipeg music
community since 1987. His funky, solid groove on bass guitar is ear-catching and
irresistible with a voice to match. While playing in the local club scene he has also been
a part of some great recording acts. Gilles has performed throughout Canada from
Thunder Bay ON to Victoria BC and even ventured to a chilly Yellowknife, NWT. After
taking a short break from the "scene", he is excited to be reunited with great friends
and fellow musicians with BED OF ROSES. When Gilles is not belting out awesome
bass lines with BED OF ROSES he is "flying high"...:)... while working for an airline
travelling all over the world.
Trevor Uruski as David Bryan
Trevor has played with numerous bands in the club scene across western Canada
and North West Ontario since 1984. He was an original member of the ABBA tribute
Supertrooper which has performed since 2000. While touring with Supertrooper,
Trevor performed in many Casinos and Summer Festivals. As well, Trevor has
worked as a school Band teacher since 1990 in Winnipeg School Division, and
presently teaches at Churchill High School in Winnipeg. He has received a Bachelor
of Music degree from Brandon University with a major in classical piano and jazz
saxophone.
Front man "Jon Bon Darryl" is a dynamic stage performer with an incredible
voice that has often been compared to Jon Bon Jovi. He has studied voice with Roy
Petty and Juno Award winner Cindi Cain. Somewhat quiet and modest off stage,
people are always shocked when he bursts onstage and works the audience into a
frenzy. An extremely dedicated bandleader, over the years he has evolved to cover
a diverse repertoire that features everything from classic rock to dance and funk.
His ability to sing such a wide range of styles, his determination and strong work
ethic accounts for his success in and around Winnipeg and south west Ontario

Rick Meurrens as Tico Torres
Winnipeg native Rick Meurrens bought his first drum kit at the age of 17. A
powerful and incredible drummer, he is prominently felt as the heartbeat of BED
OF ROSES. Along with his profound skills as a drummer, Rick brings his natural
talent for high vocal harmonies to the band. He has played in the local cover
scene over the years and with Winnipeg household name Barry Player as well as
opening for recording acts such as Pat Travers and Kings X. In his spare time,
Rick put down his drum sticks for a tennis racket. He enjoys the sport as a player
as well as an instructor
