TU-TONE JACK

About Me

TU-TONE JACK is a musical duo consisting of myself, Rik Hawkins, and Singer/Guitarist, Mike Dogger. We played all over Ontario during the 80's in other bands, and four years ago decided to harness technology and do it by ourselves. The audio samples were recorded live off the floor in Heros nightclub in 2005

We decided that we were sick of paying a cover charge to see a house band play with no effects, house lights (if any), and they didn't even look at the audience. With modern technology at our disposal, ingenuity and a desire to put on a real "show", we created TU-TONE JACK.

Even though we're a duo, we bring more lighting, P.A. and trussing than most of the club bands, with a fully automated show, syncronized video, vocal effects, modern LED light system, and visuals are executed with surgical precision every night so we can focus on giving 100% for our audience. We cram a rock concert into a 180 square foot area

We are based in the Newmarket Ontario area and play in great bars like McClusky's in Keswick, Fox and fiddle in Newmarket, The Orchard Beach in Keswick and others from Barrie to Toronto.

If you would like to be on our mailing list, we'll let you know when we're in town.
