Bach in the Saddle (2008)

As arguably one of the foremost vocal harmony, acoustic country stalwarts in Canadian music, with an impressive recording and broadcasting career, Whiskey Jack would like to perform for you sometime soon.

Hailed as "the Manhattan Transfer of country music", they are clearly having fun as they perform with a relaxed enthusiasm that comes only from experience. Check out Bach in the Saddle as they collaborate with other musical genres. If you like good times, good music, and a few laughs, you owe it to yourself to come out and hear Whiskey Jack.

Whiskey Jack at the Cadillac Lounge
Second Sunday of Every Month

Whiskey Jack continues their monthly residency at the coolest club in the city, the Cadillac Lounge. This takes place the first Sunday of every month in the afternoons at 4 pm. They will perform for much of three hours until 7 pm with the occasional intermission to mingle with the masses.

The Caddie is located at 1296 Queen Street West, just west of Dufferin.

Please bring the kids. It's a cool place for them to become indoctrinated to the musical tones of the banjo and the harmonica and the high lonesome harmonies that go with them. Who knows, there could be a hillbilly in the making and what parent wouldn't want that?

It's a special celebration on October 3 because Sam Grosso the proprietor of the Cadillac Lounge became a father once again. He has officially become the Fred McMurray of the Queen Street Strip. This was his third son. We will honour Sam's accomplishment with some fine tunes.

On May 25th 2006, Whiskey Jack released their latest CD, WhiskeyJackMusic.com. Please see the press kit or view photos from the release concert and order the new CD by contacting us.
