The EarthTONES

The EarthTONES are back!! Their accomplishments included 5 top-20 hits, 2 Juno nominations, and they toured to almost every square inch of North America (and beyond).

Before the term 'boy-band' had even been coined, the 'Tones existed prior to the ubber-commercial "Oooo baby-baby" groups of the late 90s - groups that were marketed solely towards pre-pubescent girls. Critically acclaimed for their songwriting, the EarthTONES were an independent self-formed vocal group in the tradition of previous soul and doo-wop groups - possessing a strong focus on excellent songs, harmonies, and showmanship. It's unfortunate that because of gimmicky marketing, the genre of vocal R&B groups as a whole is now considered cheesy.

Some highlights of their career included accepting an invite to record at Prince's Paisley Park Studios, performing Canada Day on Parliament Hill, sitting next to Shania at the Juno Awards, being the first western group to tour Taiwan's Universities, and meeting many wonderful people in many amazing places in this world!
Those that have followed the EarthTONES from the beginning know of the group's earlier members who contributed to the EarhTONES' storied history; namely Tim Mason, Ken Lima-Coelho, Gavin Hope, and Wayne Quinton.

Now a four piece, with their most successful members, Scott Henderson, Dana Crawford, Chris Liscano and Jesiahh -- The EarthTONES are back and have performed at high profile events such as the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame's Michael Jackson Tribute Concert (June 2010) and at their home city's premiere concert hall, the Jack Singer (April 2010).

Now recording a Christmas EP (November 2010) and a full length R&B release (Spring 2011).
