With poetic and sometimes cryptic lyrics, gritty guitars, beautiful melodies and emotive vocals, the Toronto-based band, The Jacks Of All Trades: Seamus (songwriter, lead and back vocals, guitar, bass, drums), Diego (songwriter, lead and back vocals, guitar, bass, drums), Leonard (guitar, bass, trumpet, back vocals), and Matthew (drums/percussion and back vocals) has recently broken into the music scene with their fresh yet nostalgia-evoking sound.
They got together from a mutual love of great music - huge fans of classic British rock as well as Canadian Greats The Guess Who and The Tragically Hip and influenced by a little country and whole lot of rock & roll. They just completed recording their debut album with several original songs now being released, starting with 2 debut singles: Autumn Hazy and New Old Song, and the recently released single, Fair Lady. Ron Hart from SPIN Magazine describes New Old Song as sounding like it was born from the Calfornia desert in the style of Fu Manchu and Queens of the Stone Age instead of the City of Toronto.
Skilled musicians, each member of the band can play all the instruments in their repertoire, switching instruments from song to song, depending on the composition.
They’ll continue releasing singles in the coming weeks, so be sure to get on the mailing list and follow them on social media and major streaming platforms!
