August 9, 2018 (Toronto, ON) – After taking the country scene by storm with the release of their debut album For A Good Time Call earlier this year, country chaos group Blackie Jackett Jr. will be releasing their new single ‘Dorothy’ on August 24.

“This song came about on the road. You meet some people on the road and you hope you see them again. Some, you know you best not,” explains James Black, “This song is about a woman that makes you want to stay and settle down. And how she should stay the hell away from you. I’m a rambling man.”

The band will be holding an exclusive secret event in Toronto on August 17 to celebrate the release and film the single’s music video. Limited to 50 special entrants, fans are encouraged to keep an eye on Blackie Jackett Jr’s social pages for a chance to win their way into the party. For those not able to attend, the event will be live streamed on Blackie Jackett Jr’s YouTube channel at 8:15pm on the 17th.

Since their on-stage debut at Toronto’s Phoenix Concert Theatre during Canadian Music Week, Blackie Jackett Jr. have continued to entice industry and charm crowds across Ontario with their unique smart-ass brand of country music and high-octane live show throughout festival season. Following the secret show, Blackie JackettJr. will be taking the stage at Markham Beer Festival on August 19th to keep the party rolling.
