Dissing a fellow citizen who has achieved a degree of success and notoriety is a popular Canadian pastime. I have been guilty of doing this myself, Neil Young being my favourite target. What great fun!  

But there is one target who over the years has taken more than her fair share of abuse and, from what I know, having worked closely with our former Governor General, the Right Honourable Adrienne Clarkson on a project, this is not warranted one little bit. I’m referring of course to the recent headlines…

In 1969, a year many Canadians discovered marijuana for the first time, Stompin' Tom Connors wrote and published a song that has become an anthem for the country. One of many anthems penned by Tom actually. The success of this song was immediate and he was well on his way to becoming one of the most revered Canadians ever. We respectfully honour Stompin' Tom Connors' original version by releasing today, October 17, 2018, our salute to the legalization of this well loved and heavily used substance. We call…

In an era of fake everything (at least that what it seems sometimes), I'm happy to report that there's nothing phony about our show, Whiskey Jack Presents Stories & Songs of Stompin' Tom. We sing and play the songs that we learned from the man himself, either while on tour with him in front of thousands of fans, or in his furnace room with just him and his guitar.  

The applause we hear each night is Tom's applause. The first time he heard our version of Algoma 69, he smiled and nodded his approval. That's…

Given the domination of the radio airwaves by Rogers, Corus and Bell, it's refreshing to learn that community radio is making a come back.  We've been interviewed and supported by many local stations over the years.  Their commitment to Canadian culture is unquestioned. 

They were particularly supportive of our 2018 Picton show.  

Here are two radio programs that we hosted.  

The first was CIUT-FM on June 12.  My guests were Brian and Larry Good from The Good Brothers.  The stories were crazy and…

The accolades started arriving almost immediately.  The fans of Whiskey Jack and The Good Brothers let us know that they liked this collaboration very much.  It was an idea that our promoter Shaun Pilot made happen and it turned out as he planned.  The Regent Theatre in Picton was the venue and the date was Friday, June 15, 2018.  

We began the evening with an hour of Stories & Songs of Stompin' Tom....SPONTANEOUS STANDING OVATION!  We were thrilled to be sharing the stage with these Canadian legends so…

We're very pleased to announce that Whiskey Jack has just signed our 5th licensing agreement with the two organizations that run Tom's affairs, Stompin' Tom Ltd. and their record label, Ole Majorly Indie.   The photo below includes, from left to right, Robert Ott, CEO of Ole, Duncan Fremlin, Manager of Whiskey Jack and Andy Curran, Senior Consultant, Ole.
