The Jitters

The Jitters were a Canadian rock band formed in Toronto in 1981 by Blair Packham, Danny Levy and Matthew Greenberg. Five years of constant performing established them as one of the premier club bands in the Greater Toronto Area.

An independent video in 1984 for the song "Take Me As I Am" brought them limited national exposure, though the song never appeared on any full length release. In 1986, The Jitters opened for Huey Lewis and the News at the Canadian National Exhibition, and tying for third place in Q107's Homegrown Contest with the song "Last of the Red Hot Fools".

The Jitters released their eponymous debut in 1987 with "Last Of The Red Hot Fools" as their first single and became a radio hit throughout the country. They were nominated at the 1989 Juno Awards for Most Promising Group of the Year.

Three years later, The Jitters released their second and final album Louder Than Words. The album was the last effort for the group who split in 1991 due to the pressures of constant club tours.
