Derek Sharp filled in for Phil X at two of TRIUMPH‘s concerts in Canada late last month — April 28 at Scotiabank Centre in Halifax, Nova Scotia and April 29 at Avenir Centre in Moncton, New Brunswick. Fan-filmed video of both shows can be seen below.
TRIUMPH‘s touring bassist/vocalist Todd Kerns commented: “Phil X was away for the two shows in Eastern Canada due to scheduling conflicts so our dear friend Derek Sharp from GOWAN was kind enough to step in and crush it.”
Sharp is a Canadian multi-instrumentalist, songwriter, producer, engineer, and vocalist. He is best known as the lead singer and frontman of the Jim Kale-managed incarnation of THE GUESS WHO from 2008 to 2024.
