...take my shirt off? I don’t need a cue for that!

About Me


The story of SitDownTracy began 20-something years ago, in the back seat of a stolen car in St. Norbert. Conception was an easy step for Janelle Mailhot, who spent the years after her birth living, breathing and becoming the voice of SitDownTracy.Janelle decided to share the stage in summer of 2007, when she teamed up with long-time friend of German heritage, Trevor Graumann. Growing up in St.Norbert was hard for Trevor. Small towns can be judgemental, especially for Trevor who refused to wear a shirt at most times. To get through these tough times, Trevor resorted to guitar and Lucky Extra. We're proud to say it got him by.The small town folk continued to gravitate towards a maturing SitDownTracy. Aaron Zeghers, prodigal son of Holland, Manitoba, joined SitDownTracy with his super duper long bass. It sounded tasty like a pie.In a desperate plea strewn across the interweb, Matt Powers joined with a crash, thumpity, thump, thump, crash. Matt drives the SitDownTracy bus, with a flourish here, a flourish there, and a "holy shit that drummer is awesome" everywhere.***Beware, there is a Matt Powers imposter. We hear that he writes for The Lance... South Winnipeg's community news champion.Since the final imalgimation of SitDownTracy, we have been fighting to find a genre that we clearly fall into. We've decided on: TOTALLY AWESOME. What do you think?
