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.
