JUKE KARTEL is an echelon of the true Aussie Rock breed; forged in the music alleys of Melbourne Australia, producing an array of music interlaced with the history of their time, the rock of their era and the contemporary uniqueness that can only be JUKE KARTEL.....

Dale Winters on lead, Tommy Kende on bass, drummer Jay Pinfold and frontman Toby Rand, a vocalist who can hold his own amongst peers of the highest calibre.

JUKE KARTEL have performed over 40 shows in the Los Angeles area as well as shows with Slash & Friends (Ozzy Osbourne, Dave Navarro, Fergie, Billy Idol, Andrew Stockdale, Chester Bennington, Travis Barker and more) one in Norway at the Quart Music Festival for 30,000 people; a performance at the Los Angeles Youth Network benefit and another opening for Slash's "SLASHER FILMS" Sundance Launch Party in Park City, UT.

In 2009 Juke Kartel relocated to Los Angeles and signed a record deal to Carved Records. The band toured America as a support act for Slash, Ozzy, Fuel, Rockstar: Supernova and opened for Nickelback and Seether during their earlier Australia tours.

Lead singer Toby Rand became a household name in Australia when he appeared on the CBS TV show Rockstar: Supernova with Tommy Lee. He was a lead runner the extent of the show and ultimately remained loyal to his band Juke Kartel back home in Australia; resulting in a national arena tour of the USA and Canada with Rockstar: Supernova following the show.

JUKE KARTEL was the first unsigned artist to perform at the MTV Awards Australia and receiving a People’s Choice Award in 2008. The band had played its fair share of small clubs and pubs for the last few years before Nickelback asked them to open two stadium gigs in Melbourne; they then played with Seether during their earlier Australia tours. Juke Kartel have also performed at several music festivals and completed several tours in and around Australia.

Toby and his band are strong advocates for several causes, Breast Cancer Research being the main; teaming with Susan G Komen in their tireless efforts, Rand's self-written song "BRIGHTEST STAR"  became SGK LA County's official music track for their campaign last year. Itunes proceeds from "BRIGHTEST STAR" goes to Susan G Komen Foundation LA County. CBS NEWS LA covered a televised story on how the song was inspired, created and brought to fruition.

Here we have JUKE KARTEL; a dynamic and progressive rock band; a charismatic bunch of Aussie charmers with a strenuous appreciation and penchant for what they do....dedicated to taking you upon a journey of rock and soul. They will rock you with an intensity unparalleled and shake your hand whilst doing it.

Juke Kartel's latest album "LEVOLUTION" is available on iTunes.
