Band Biographies

Aaron W Mansfield

Vocals, Harmonica, Percussion

A mild mannered graphic designer by day, and seasoned performer by night, at only 28 years old, Aaron has had many great achievements under his performance belt. From early beginnings singing in choral festivals and school bands, Aaron soon got a taste for performing, and was lucky enough to be selected to perform on stage in Londons West End, and in Washington DC, USA. Expanding his horizons, Aaron has since supported "The Angels" on part of their 2008 Australian Tour, (as the front man for rock band; "The Hornets"). Sticking with the live band scene, Aaron has also fronted popular Newcastle acts "Spent Penny" & "The Royal Derbies". After working part time with Wayne and his Karaoke show, Aaron soon joined forces with Wayne and Michelle to create the covers trio "You, Me & Her". After a short but successful run, "You, Me & Her" evolved into "Jumpin' Jukebox Trio, and the rest as they say is history.

Wayne Parkinson

Starting out as a Karaoke enthusiast, travelling to shows around the hunter and Newcastle areas, Wayne soon had the karaoke bug and decided to start his own show. "It's All In Good Fun Karaoke" was born, and after many years of providing one of the areas top karaoke shows, Wayne decided to take up guitar and join forces with his neighbor Aaron and his talented daughter Michelle to create "You Me & Her" Trio. Learning the ropes as he went, Wayne was the backbone of the group, both playing guitar and providing vocals. With the evolution into Jumpin' Jukebox, Waynes place as a valued performer was solidified.
