They are unique in that many of the members originally found success in other fields: former lead singer Paul Quarrington (1953-2010) was a writer and filmmaker; guitarist/harmonica player Stuart Laughton is a classical trumpet player with an international reputation as is bass player Chas Elliott (Toronto Symphony).
Laughton founded Opening Day Recordings in 1993 as a means of promoting Canadian music and musicians such as pianist Janina Fialkowska, harpist Judy Loman, composer R. Murray Schafer, soprano Mary Lou Fallis and the Hannaford Street Silver Band with conductor Bramwell Tovey.
