The Tonic is arguably one of Port Douglas' most popular bands.

The secret to their success is two fold. Firstly they have stayed together for over a                          decade with the same line-up.

This has lead to an amazingly tight sound that is reproduced every performance.                    Secondly, they have a repertoire that, although heavily reliant on great Australian                                       pop and rock songs, covers many more musical genres.

They are repeatedly praised for their great mix of songs as they tend to                                  steer away from the more tired covers, playing songs that people know                                    but don't often hear performed.

The Tonic are a great option at wedding receptions for crowds of 80 people or more. Their extensive repertoire appeals to all ages. To hear one of The Tonic's              recordings just visit the audio page
