Whiskey Jack Brings the Legacy of Stompin' Tom to Chelsea
On Saturday, October 19, 2024, the heart of Chelsea will be alive with the sounds of one of Canada’s most iconic musical figures, Stompin' Tom Connors. Whiskey Jack, the band that spent years touring with the folk legend, is bringing their hit show Stories & Songs of Stompin' Tom to the cozy stage at Motel Chelsea. This is more than just a concert—it’s a night filled with music, laughter, and stories that celebrate the life and legacy of one of Canada’s most beloved storytellers.

For over a decade, Whiskey Jack has been keeping the spirit of Stompin' Tom alive. Their show offers a delightful mix of toe-tapping tunes, engaging tales, and a nostalgic trip through Canadian country music history. The band doesn’t just play Tom’s songs—they were his friends, and their memories of him bring a personal touch that fans won’t experience anywhere else.

A Band with Deep Roots in Canadian Music

Whiskey Jack has been a staple of the Canadian country music scene for over 40 years. Their long list of achievements includes being regular performers on CBC's Tommy Hunter Show in the 1980s. It was during this time that Stompin' Tom became a fan of their sound, tuning in to enjoy their signature blend of humor and musicianship every week. In the years that followed, Whiskey Jack and Stompin' Tom would form a close bond, collaborating on his album Dr. Stompin' Tom… Eh? and performing together right up until his passing in 2014.

Their shared history has now blossomed into the show they’ll be performing at Motel Chelsea. Fans of Stompin' Tom will have the chance to sing along to his greatest hits while learning more about the man behind the music through stories that only Whiskey Jack can tell. It’s a performance that feels as much like a heartfelt conversation as it does a tribute to one of Canada’s greatest country legends.

A Night to Remember at Motel Chelsea

The intimate setting of Motel Chelsea provides the perfect backdrop for this special event. From the first strum of the guitar to the last stomp of the boot, the audience will be taken on a journey through the life and songs of Stompin' Tom. Whether you're a long-time fan or a newcomer to his music, this show promises to entertain and connect you with the rich history of Canadian folk.
