The Tonettes
Marlene and Cathy : sweet family harmony – powerful and soulful female vocalists.
Est. 2007 : The Tonettes have been blessed with many years of experience. Between the two of them, their work accomplishments span from coast-to-coast in Canada, the United States and abroad, in a multitude of venues – both big and small. Everything from studio work, stage productions, church concerts and outdoor festivals, to conferences and tribute shows. Most currently, headlining their own show, ‘Motown-Soul’ (under Paquette Productions), and touring it in theatres across Canada to rave reviews.
The Tonettes bring together their individual knowledge of the vocal craft obtained by literally decades of experience and traditional music schooling. Marlene and Cathy are first cousins and are rooted in the vocal stylings of Church Gospel music. Singing together since they were very young along with their mothers and family, they mastered the art of both performing solid lead vocals and supportive vocal harmonies. “There has never been a day that we can remember not being able to hear a vocal harmony!”
The Tonettes currently perform styles that include Gospel, Country, Pop, Soul, Blues, and Rock. They endeavour to put everything they have into each performance whether backing up another artist or headlining an event themselves; clearly presenting the message of any song. Their goal is to always, without exception, deliver top-notch vocal harmonies, resulting in a joyful and powerful presentation of music.
