Norman Foote, born Norman Mervyn Barrington-Foote, claims his name forced him to develop a sense of humor at an early age. At age 11, Norman's parents gave him his first guitar, a finely crafted instrument from the Sears Catalog. This set the stage for a lifelong dream. With idols including The Beatles, Hank Williams and Elvis, it wasn't long before Norman switched to electric guitar and performed with garage bands during his high school years.

When Norman was 20 , he left his home in Vancouver, Canada to explore Australia and New Zealand, and made his living as a street performer and songster. Norman first developed an interest in puppetry and physical comedy through his association with a traveling theater troupe in New South Wales, Australia. Still hooked on music but enthralled with the art of puppetry and comedy, Norman chose the only feasible solution - to combine all three.

Now a father of five, Norman has created a very special niche with his irreverent comedy and skillful music. He has written and recorded songs for Disney Records, Shari Lewis, CBC syndicated TV show "Scoop & Doozie" to name a few.
