Biography
The Sin-Tones are a Toronto based trio that play roots rock and roll with a heavy emphasis on twangy surf, rockabilly and western swing. Their first CD “The Sin-Tones” was recorded live in 4 hours. It was released through pop culture icons Gutter Press and charted very well on Canadian college radio. The CD features the first ever surf version of Gordon Lightfoot’s “The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald”.
The Sin-Tones released their second CD “Surf-o-Ghetti!” through Canadian indie label Fading Ways. “Surf-o-Ghetti!” saw the release of The Sin-Tones first video “(Theme from) Chick Boat”, the lead off single. The video was made with the support of VideoFact and was so well received at the Independent Music Video Festival in Vancouver, that it achieved “best of the fest” status. To promote the release of “Surf-o-Ghetti!”, The Sin-Tones toured Europe for the first time and are planning to return shortly due to the overwhelming response.
The band features the writing team of Michael Hussey (vocals, guitar) and Jo Bradley (vocals, bass) with Jim Clark on drums.
Live The Sin-Tones are energetic, irreverent and a hell of a lot of fun. Their style uniquely blends twangy surf instrumentals with huge Ennio Morricone style vocals, classic movie and TV themes, western swing and rockabilly.
