The favourite son of Canada’s most celebrated family dynasty of sheep-keepers, SpookyB is a professionally trained herdsperson.

In the close-knit community of sheep people, the name SpookyB is associated with the ancient practice of connecting with the wooly through music and song. These are sounds not usually heard by the non-sheep. SpookyB shepherds his fuzzy flock along the highways and backroads of Canada’s sheep routes in search of greener pastures. They usually travel late at night to avoid being counted, an offensive practice started by an old wife and a wolf and now considered stigmatizing to sheep.

Those who have encountered them have reported “baleful melodies intermixed with a bass baa-baaing.” SpookyB himself acknowledges that his primary instrument is whistling and foot tapping. He once told a literary agent being able to “blues things up” with a “good whistle from the gut” in time with a good shake of a lamb’s tail is what keeps him sane during the long nights on the road. He has an Apple Watch and enjoys setting new faces. He also writes stories.
