This week's featured guest: SAT., MAY 10th- WHISKEY JACK


Here we go once again, something completely different....As arguably one of the foremost vocal harmony, country/bluegrass stalwarts in Canadian music, with an impressive recording and broadcasting career, my old friends, Whiskey Jack, will be joining the Niagara Rhythm Section once again this Saturday night.

If you like good times, good music and a few laughs, you owe it to yourself to come out and hear Whiskey Jack.

Since 1977, Whiskey Jack has become the most celebrated Roots /Country/Bluegrass band in Canadian music history with:

• Four critically acclaimed recordings
• Nationally charted radio hits
• Juno and Country Music Awards nominations

As well as being regular guests of "Morningside" and "Variety Tonight" on CBC Radio, they were stars of "The Tommy Hunter Show" for five years in the 1980s, and made numerous appearances on such shows as The Alan Thicke Show, Fire on the Mountain, Ralph Emory, and The Nashville Network, thus earning them the description of the most televised bluegrass/ acoustic country band in Canada.

In 1993, Stompin' Tom Connors teamed with Whiskey Jack to record one of his comeback albums, Dr. Stompin' Tom Connors , eh? (featuring the celebrated "Hockey Song"), followed by a triumphant national tour. 2004 saw them on the road again with this Canadian icon. The tour culminated in a sold-out show at Massey Hall in Toronto and an unprecedented performance on the Conan O'Brien Show.
