Originally from Saskatoon, Saskatchewan,[1] Stace began writing songs as a pastime while working in mining exploration in remote locations in northern Saskatchewan.[3] In 1989, he won a local radio "Homegrown" competition with his song "Runaround",[4] and competed in YTV's Rock Showdown series.[1] Larry Wanagas then signed him to Bumstead Records, which released his debut album Buddha Hotel in 1991.[5] The album's country rock style was commonly compared by critics to Neil Young, Steve Earle and John Fogerty.[4] The album peaked at #73 in RPM,[6] and "Runaround" peaked at No. 33 in the magazine's Top 40.[7]

He followed up in 1992 with Road to Damascus.[8] He subsequently lost his record deal, and reemerged in 2000 with the independently-released album Redemption Game.[9]
