Lakefield Musician's Band 'Live Shiny Tunes' To Rock New Years at Dr. J's BBQ & Brews
/Rock out and ring in 2023 with Michael Beauclerc and Live Shiny Tunes at Dr. J's BBQ & Brews New Year’s event on Dec. 31.

Formed in November, the band features the iconic tunes of the 90s and the musical stylings of many local names. Attendees can rock out with Peterborough songbird SJ Riley, Yamaha celebrity percussion clinician Michael Beauclerc and the introspective delights of the McManus brothers; Devin on guitar and Dawson on bass.
“(I’m) beyond excited to announce I’ve joined an amazing roster of musicians to bring you Live Shiny Tunes,” said SJ Riley in a Facebook post.
The band’s founder Michael Beauclerc says that the show will be great for the 35 to 50 aged crowd and those who enjoyed MuchMusic’s earlier rock albums ‘Big Shiny Tunes.’
“Live Shiny Tunes is an idea that I’ve had for a number of years,” said Beauclerc. “We had our first-ever rehearsal in November and Dr. J’s will be our first, debut show.”
The professional musician was gifted his first drum set at the age of three. By the time he was in high school, he was a Canadian champion snare drummer, performing at local bars in Peterborough and going on to major in percussion and vocal at Cambrian College.
“(Music) is something I’ve always done, it’s what I was always going to do and going to be,” said Beauclerc. “That’s why I wanted to school for it so I would get more opportunities.”

The drummer, hand percussionist and singer is an artist/clinician for Yamaha Percussion, Vic Firth sticks & Mallets, SABIAN cymbals and REMO. He is the band leader of ‘The Bowie Lives: A David Bowie Spectacular Experience’ and the percussion head of the St. Michael’s College School Drumline in Toronto, the Oak Ridge Percussion in Colborne, Trinity College School Drumline in Port Hope and a consultant/composer for several other scholastic drumlines.
On top of his music, Beauclerc is the editor-in-chief of Drumline Magazine and has written novels used by Canadian drumlines and marching percussion instructors.
Live Shiny Tunes will be at Dr. J’s (282 Alymer St. N) starting at 9 p.m.
“This music was the biggest music of the late nineties and early 2000’s, (this) is the music that I played in college,” says Beauclerc. “It’s going to be Lenny Kravitz, The Odds, The Goo Goo Dolls, Garbage and more. It’s a big mix.”
$20 tickets are available online here, or for $25 at the door.
