Dayton has performed across North America and Australia as The Canadian Romantic, where he manifests as a series of videos, live performances, a doll, an art book published by PITT Projects, and a winking photo to make people everywhere feel more attractive. He has acted in  independent and art movies, including one called “Male Fantasy.” His collaborative musical performance and recording projects include song-and-dance duo Canned Hamm, the ”no two shows the same” multi-piece July Fourth Toilet, acid-downer-folk group Points Gray, and Romantic Glam band Hallmark. Besides these projects, he has also released solo material, including an EP called "Someone Is Out to Kill Me." He has been a muse to such diverse artists as Destroyer and Tonetta, who have each written songs about him with such titles as "Canadian Lover." Dayton holds an MFA from the University of Waterloo.
