Timeline
Tony Flaim (April 20, 1948 – March 10, 2000) was among the early professional blues singers in Canada, most notable as the lead singer for the Downchild Blues Band on six of that band's albums.
Flaim was associated with Downchild for extended periods over fifteen years.
Tony Flaim first came to prominence as a blues singer when he succeeded Richard "Hock" Walsh as the lead singer the Downchild Blues Band in 1974.
Hock Walsh had been fired by his brother and Downchild band co-founder Donnie, prior to work commencing on the band's third album, Dancin'.
Hock rejoined the band in 1977, at which time Flaim joined the Cameo Blues Band, the legendary house band at the Cameo Lounge of Toronto's Hotel Isabella.
Flaim succeeded Hock Walsh as the lead singer of the Cameo Blues Band, in the same manner as he had succeeded Hock Walsh as the lead singer of Downchild.
When Hock Walsh quit Downchild in 1978, Flaim again was his replacement.
In 1982, Flaim was replaced by John Witmer, best known to that point as the lead singer of seminal Canadian blues band Whiskey Howl, and who remained as Downchild's lead singer during the 1982–1986 period.
Flaim then formed a new blues band, Tony Flaim and The Dukes, which was generally well received, becoming a house band at Toronto's venerable Jarvis House Tavern.
He also was the original lead singer for Fathead, a multi award-winning, Toronto-based blues and rhythm and blues band.
In 1986, Flaim succeeded Witmer in Downchild until 1989, when Hock Walsh rejoined and was fired from Downchild for a final time.
Flaim died of a heart attack, on March 10, 2000, at the age of 51, less than three months after Hock Walsh and barely a month after appearing at a tribute concert in memory of Hock Walsh.
At the time of his death, he was scheduled to contribute vocals to a forthcoming album by Dave "Big Daddy G" Glover, with whom Hock Walsh had made his last recordings.
One of the demo tracks Flaim completed with Glover was included on the Big Daddy G Topless album (2000), which also included the tribute song, "Blues for T.F."
Flaim was remembered by way of a benefit memorial concert at Toronto's Horseshoe Tavern, on May 7, 2000.
Playing in his honour were such acts as Downchild, Fathead, Big Daddy G, the Cameo Blues Band and The Dukes—the bands with which Tony Flaim had been associated during a career of over twenty-five years—plus Michael Pickett, who publicly acknowledged Flaim's encouragement of and influence on Pickett's own career.
Proceeds from the concert were to provide educational support to Tony Flaim's son.
