Bizzy D, grew up in a variety of different settings. Starting out in
Scarborough, Canada his rep as a champion recess fighter in elementary
school. That all ceased when he retired from the WRFA (world recess
fighting ass) at the tender age of eleven. He then moved on to lead a
simpler life in the small farming town of Keane, filled with fishing
and
Rod Stewart albums.
Realizing he needed more, Bizzy and his mom picked up and moved to
Ajax. Soon after Deryck bought a guitar. Then it started. Bands and
song ideas started to flow. Former bands include: Powerful Young
Hustlers, Eternal Death, Chemical Head, Door's of Draven, Keane's
unbeatable teens, Kaspir and Final Notice. Then of course in the summer
of '96 Deryck and Steve Jocz formed SUM41.
