Vezi has been an integral part of the Canadian music industry for over thirty years. The original owner of the still operating, seminal independent recording studio Kensington Sound in Toronto, Vezi has engineered and produced countless domestic and international talent and worked with the very best influential and creative artists in Canada. From Alannah Myles to Tower of Power to Daniel Lanois and Chris Spedding, Vezi's long list of credits almost reads as an urban history of the evolution of the independent Canadian recording scene. After deciding to form a record label, Quantum Records signed and produced records by Harlow, Belinda Metz, The Look People, Keith McKie, Steve Fox, Rex Chainbelt, The Crack of Dawn, Jay McGhee, Mad About Plaid and many others. With singles in the top 15 on Billboard and publishing deals, Vezi has also made a mark for himself not only as a career songwriter but also solo performer with two CDs of his own released to critical acclaim: Army of Angels and Between Us All. These versatile talents have made Vezi a popular musical director and he currently is touring as MD for the legendary R&B band 'The Drifters'. Recently, Vezi has expanded his horizons to include film scoring with documentaries and has many feature films under his belt.
