Hey and welcome to "MAKE WAY FOR THE LEMON PARADE", a site dedicated to the breakthrough artists TONIC!

So how are they? Well, you have the adorable, cute as a bunny, Emerson Hart who is the lead singer, then you have magazine babe Jeff Russo, the band's guitarist, man in the bright shirts Dan Lavery, the mighty bassists and last but not least Kevin Shepard the blond babe in the back, the drummer! Yup Tonic is the band of four babes! And here they are! (*alright*)


So far Tonic has released only one CD which has kept them busy, through tours, interviews, fests and so on, for almost two years. They debut album LEMON PARADE is definetly a hit. (so if you don't own it yet, go out and get it now!)Here's the cover.


I first saw Tonic in Chicago at the Vic when they played with K's Choice and The Verve Pipe during summer '97. It was among the best shows I've ever seen. Then later that year my friends and I had the most awesome luck to go see them again in Chicago on Halloween night at the Metro, with opening band Summercamp. There a few friends and I had the luck to meet, chat, and totally freak out with Jeff Russo, who I had been talking to via email. He and Emerson are totally rad! Jeff was the sweetest guy and seemed to be genuinely happy to meet fans! :) I will tell you all about it in a review that I'll be posting shortly so keep your eyes peeled. And oh check back soon for "hopefully" a shot of the show, and Jeff's autograph on my ticket, which he personalized and everything!!!!! :)
