LARRY SWIERCZ
Keyboards / Vocals

Larry was born in the 1950s in Brantford, Ontario.

He studied Ontario Conservatory Piano from the age of five 'til he was fifteen, and disliked every minute of it. Larry also studied woodwinds through his high school years, and performed in both concert and stage bands. Finally understanding what all this study and training were for, Larry snuck into a bar at an early age and saw Canadian rockers Thunder Mug. It was time to put away the sheet music and learn how to play rock...

In 1976, Larry entered the Recording Production and Engineering program at Fanshawe College in London, Ontario where he met current band mates Greg Johns and Rick Neufeld.

In 1979, Larry hit the road with other Fanshawe alumni, and toured Canada until 1982 when he was reunited with Greg and Rick in Niagara Falls with prog-rockers Spectrum.

Along with PFN band mates Rob Wells and Mike Berardelli, Larry formed Ice Nine, touring Canada and the US playing originals as well as Pink Floyd music. Larry's musical journey included stints with Geneva, White Frost, and The Fab Two where he first teamed up with present band mates Eric Price and Mark Christopher. The late 80s 'til present had Larry playing in Ice Nine and Spectrum (again, lots of Pink Floyd music).

"Pink Floyd Niagara is the culmination of collective experience. Putting this project together with friends who are dedicated professionals has made it a very natural thing to do."
