It's been awhile since we've been in touch with you.  That's not to say we've been hibernating.  We continue to write, produce and promote our music each day.  For example.... 

Our show continues to generate attention from the industry.  Just…

Banjodunc Productions announce that 2022 will begin Whiskey Jack's 45th year playing their unique brand of Canadian country music. It is also their 8th year touring with "Stories & Songs of Stompin' Tom". This year-long tour needs a name.

Whiskey Jack's "other" musical entity is Doogie and Dun (aka Douglas John Cameron and Duncan Fremlin).  These two giants (5 feet, 7 and one half inches) in the Canadian music community are the voices of our Stories & Songs of…

Those of us in the entertainment industry live for that “special night” when the audience leaves the theatre smiling and with love in their…

As a lifetime "radio freak", spending countless hours as a young boy, hiding under the covers, searching for obscure stations in the middle of the night, listening for hours on my little (and quite shitty) transistor radio, I'm beyond thrilled…

One year ago today, my phone rang, I looked at the screen, and knew immediately what the call was about.  I knew it was coming but I still couldn't believe that my best friend and musical collaborator, Bob McNiven, had…

My friends Murray and Dale, both now late, were great joke tellers.  Occasionally, every once in awhile, the joke was funny.  Sometimes that didn't matter.  They put so much drama into their presentation, that was funny enough.

On our 1993…

Yes, it's true.  We have shows (even a tour) booked for 2022. 

The Ontario Arts Council have released the results of a study they sponsored.  They were seeking information on what audiences are thinking as we enter our second year…

Whiskey Jack released a fantastic CD in 2019 and we want you to hear it. It's called "Rhymes & Good Times".

Our Youtube channel will be presenting all of the cuts from this CD in video form over the next…

Good day and good health to everyone. Here at Whiskey Jack headquarters, we continue to “keep the faith” and are planning live music events this spring/summer/fall. However, there’s one little glitch. The business of live music as we knew it…

Our annual Stompin' Tom Birthday Celebrations have offered a lot of highlights since we began in 2014 but the one that stands out in my mind was the second in 2015.  After our chaotic but highly successful first concert in…

When I published my book, My Good Times With Stompin' Tom in late 2018, I didn't have lofty expectations.   I had been selling albums, songs, CD's and merchandise for 40 years so this would simply be another item in my…

We did it! We now have over 1000 (and counting) subscribers to this channel. Thank you all.  

YouTube notified me directly with the news. So many to thank...and it's all in this short video. @Stompin' Tom Connors @adrenneclarkson @Gordon Lightfoot…

You are?  Let's talk!

Good day from Whiskey Jack headquarters.

A good percentage of our fans are north of 50, perhaps even 60. They tell us they will not be buying a ticket to a live indoor show until this…

Friends, family and fans of the late Bob McNiven have come together to sing and have fun with Bob's most popular Christmas song, "Underneath The Christmas Tree".

Stay for the out-takes.

When I published my book (My Good Times With Stompin' Tom) in 2018, the reaction from the obviously educated and highly sophisticated Canadian populous was immediate! The sales were so robust, a second edition was soon ordered. I'm thrilled to…

Throughout the day, when I'm not despairing over the state of the world, a ray of sunshine (metaphorically speaking) sometimes breaks through the clouds and lifts my spirits.  The first of the day appeared this morning when I booted up…

Greetings from Whiskey Jack head office. Sadly, we're working from home, our on stage office being temporarily closed. It will reopen.

It doesn't happen often but sometimes my real estate, music and hockey interests overlap and good things happen. I…

That's the only way I can easily describe our world right now.   Visibility is not good.

Regardless, we continue to book shows into 2021.

It's been a busy few days.

Happy Canada Day to you and yours from Whiskey Jack head office. We thank you for supporting our music over the years. It continues to give us hope that some day we'll once again stand on a stage, sing our…

Bob McNiven, professional singer, songwriter, guitar and banjo player, unapologetically romantic with a smile permanently imprinted on his face, was born in Pennsylvania on May 24, 1952 and died at home in Toronto on May 4, 2020 of ALS.
