(Although Whiskyjack band members have been known to be fond of whisky and whiskey at times.)
Whiskyjack was formed in Winnipeg, Manitoba Canada in 2023. After years of playing together, the founding members found a need in the community for music, and found a place to release the many songs that had been written by the members up to that time. One of those songs was called Whiskyjack, and then so was the band.
Whiskyjack plays original music written mainly from experiences living in the Church over the course of over fifty years.
