Gulliver''s Spree

Dave Panting and Tom Boland bring strong vocals, innovative arrangements and passion for their traditional Newfoundland and Labrador repertoire to every performance. Their all around instrumental prowess, solid rhythm and easy going stage presence combine to offer an invigorating interpretation of traditional Newfoundland and Labrador music.

Tom and Dave performed as a duo in St. John''s, Newfoundland, in 2005. Inspired by the "positive vibe" they enjoyed on stage, they formed Gulliver''s Spree in 2006. Their debut CD, "The Sunny Long Ago: Newfoundland Classics", was independently released December 2, 2007.
