Hi and welcome to my new website. Here you'll be able to check out the show "packages" I have to offer, see where my gigs will be, see who's being played on Mojos, my radio show and most importantly make a booking direct or through my agency Jaybees. BIO: I've been in this business for more years than I care to mention, starting out as a 16 year old in the New England area. In those heady days of the 60's bands were touring constantly and I received my baptism of fire through supporting some of Australias top artists.....they were great times. I've continued with many different bands over the following years, taking time out to surf, try the hippy lifestyle and even manage a radio station but I've always been drawn back to the buzz of live performing.. In 2002 I threw away the security of playing in a band and headed out as a solo acoustic act and havent looked back since. I love the freedom of playing "organic" acoustic music and have enjoyed spots at Thredbo Blues Festival, Great Southern Blues Festival (4 years now), Tumba Fest and a couple of "guest" spots at Broadbeach Blues in Qld. My act has evolved due to developing sequencing skills and utilising a home studio to produce backing tracks and venturing into the pub and club market from the Vic border to Wollongong, Canberra to the Southern Highlands and all points in between. As a result of this and a diverse repertoire I'm able to cater for a wide variety of venues and work at something I love while actually earning a living. Its all good! THE SHOWS The Pub/Club Show: Sequence backed electric show featuring classic 60s tunes to todays artists like Snow Patrol, Kings of Leon and Kid Rock plus all those favourites from Chisel, OZ Crawl, AC/DC, Doors etc etc.... The Club Show: A mix of electric and acoustic tunes at lower volume than above
from artists like Van Morrison, Paul Kelly, Pete Murray and if its suits the crowd heading back to Elvis, Buddy Holly and Neil Diamond. The Blues/Roots/Acoustic Show: Original songs, Blues Standards and a selection of "roots" music played on acoustic guitar without backin tracks but still maintaining a full sound by utilising a Boss Loop Station and Digitech Harmoniser for a full sound
(samples of original tunes can be found at www.myspace.com/tonyjaggers or Of course all these packages can be thrown together in any combination to suit your venue. GEAR 1979 Fender Stratocaster P.A. 2 x JBL 15" with Horns loaded, Wharfdale 18" Subs STUDIO Boss BR1600 Digital Recording Studio |
