South Australian singer-songwriter Dino Jag has just released a killer funk pop-rock track that’s sure to get everyone moving. Featuring an ebullient groove, high energy vocals and bursts of hooks and good-time cheer, Can’t Keep Still is definitely not going to keep you still for very long at all. As Dino says of the track: ‘The spark for Can’t Keep Still was ironically ignited by the 2020 bans on public venue dancing in Australia’. And that spark has ignited a sassy and alluring pop–funk fest that is sure to be the breakthrough hit of the summer. But Dino Jag is no stranger to success. He first launched onto the international music arena in 2005 with his unique cover of the 70’s classic, Play that Funky Music which charted worldwide, reaching number 8 in Australia and number 34 in Denmark. Nominated ‘Best Male Vocalist’ for three consecutive years at the South Australian Music Industry Awards (SAMIA) he soon hit the international spotlight again with the release of his song Calling All The Saints breaking all records to become the #1 most purchased song on the Music For Good program for Oxfam America. More recently he gained international recognition following the release of his critically acclaimed Breakthrough EP in 2016, which was recorded at the legendary Sunset Sound Studios in Hollywood with Grammy Award Winning Producer Jeff Bova at the helm and featured international luminaries including, Aaron Sterling (John Mayer), Corey Britz (Bush), Tim Pierce (Bruce Springsteen), Jeff Bova (Michael Jackson), Carroll Hatchet (Bette Midler) and Bernard Fowler (The Rolling Stones), the experience and success of the EP was yet another major milestone in Dino’s career. The first single off the Breakthrough EP Two Young Hearts was awarded second place at the 2016 International Unsigned Music Awards. Dino has shared the stage with some heavy hitters in the industry including, Richie Sambora (Bon Jovi), Sammy Hagar (Van Halen), Status Quo, Adelaide & Queensland Symphony Orchestras, James Morrison, Steve Vai (David Lee Roth/Whitesnake), Richard Marx, Beeb Birtles (LRB), Jon Stevens, Daryl Braithwaite and Ian Moss. Can’t Keep Still is an instant delight, invigorating and fearlessly charming, it’s a no-brainer crowd pleaser.
