During that time Moose started teaching music privately & doing solo gigs , performing songs of his songwriting hero’s John Prine, Steve Earle& Kris Kristofferson .
It was during this time , Moose started writing his own songs. However bass duties would be a priority when in 2010 Chad Brownlee came calling. Moose played festivals all over North America including several television performances on the CCMAS , Junos , not to mention several music videos & radio.
