Lasha Knows Everything (And Also Nothing)

Juno nominated musician Ted Peters is doing something SUPER COOL this weekend in Downtown Oshawa!  He's bringing his own take on a Second Line (a traditional celebratory brass band parade deeply rooted in the culture of New Orleans) and bringing it right here to DTO! Lasha talks to Ted about how you can participate in this cool event, his career in the music industry, and Oshawa as a music city.
One day, Lasha will figure out how to get the mic levels sorted out, but until then, you might have to fool around with the volume knob. 
Sorry! xo

Dave has been investigating since 1994 and formally formed CHAPS in 2005. Raised in the Spiritualist church, he has ties to that "world" but has chosen to rely on the more pragmatic style of research - use of logic. Dave has lead the team on hundreds of investigations, with numerous team partnerships included across Ontario, NE and Mid United States and overseas. He has been a proud TAPS Family member since 2008.     Contact Dave at dave@chapsparanormal.ca
