Freddie James is a Canadian disco and R&B musician best known for his 1979 hit "(Everybody) Get Up and Boogie". Born in Chicago and raised in Montreal, he began his music career at age 14 and now headlines the globally touring corporate and event band, the Freddie James Project.
​
Since the early 2000s, James has continued his legacy as the frontman and bandleader for the Freddie James Project, a highly sought-after, multi-piece show band. The ensemble regularly performs internationally, entertaining crowds with a rich repertoire of funk, soul, pop, and Motown classics at corporate events, festivals, and weddings.
Conceived 10 years ago, Shinebox is a predominantly 90s A-list band basing their vast repertoire on alternate rock. Originally playing songs that would make 99.9 The Buzz proud, they adapted to audience participation and include pop, punk and country.
​
Always danceable and interactive, Shinebox also puts their own spin on classic songs from the 70s and 80s. Two cousins front the band with Dave providing exquisite vocals and multi-instrumentalist Bob shredding his many guitars.
​
Pat is a slim guy but holds down a fat bottom end and his rhythmic partner on drums is the cheerfully exuberant Gonzo. Anyone who has seen a Shinebox show doesn’t leave disappointed.
