Hailing from Calgary Alberta, this established Country Rock act has been playing together for some time. In the last three years they've become one of Alberta’s top drawing “live” acts in the club and concert scene. With a brand new album out on shelves now, Jo Hikk is now becoming one of Canadian Country Music’s newest rising stars.
The band is comprised of brothers Kelly (lead vocals & bass) and Kenny Sitter (guitar & vocals) with Al Doell (guitar, drums & vocals) and Al Rheaume (drums) and Don Jorgensen (keyboards/mandolin).
They have performed shows from Canada to Kandahar and have shared many stages with top named acts. Known for their great vocal sound, energy and antics, Jo Hikk has a proven track record as a real crowd pleaser.
As songwriters, the band have been developing their original material over the years and as a result, a 5 song CD was produced by Bob Foster (Jan Arden). The songs from this CD attracted not only many new fans worldwide but also the interest of several music industry professionals.
Early in 2006, work began on their new full length CD with multiple award winner, George Canyon and Rick Mizzoni from MCC signing on as producers. The album was recorded in Nashville’s famed Masterphonics Tracking Room, and at MCC Recording Studio in Calgary.
The new album titled "Ride" features songs penned by Jo Hikk, along with fellow Canadians A.J. Goodvin, Randy J. Marten, Gordie Sampson, Sean Hogan, Cyril Rawlson and George Canyon. The album also includes songs written by some of Nashville's top writers Pete Sallis, Neil Thrasher, Ritchie MacDonald and Bo Allen.
The steady and constant growth of fans has been nothing short of amazing. Jo Hikk thanks you all for your continued support and friendship. We look forward to seeing you on the road!
