Beat driven\, joyous and made of many! \nWhat a way to end the night. \n \nLine-up subject to change.

SUMMARY:Pip Payne
DESCRIPTION:Following a few Wayne Mason / Pip Payne duo gigs up the coast\, we thought a spot of boogie-woogie / slide guitar blues wouldn’t go astray in the Capital. \n  \nWayne has graced the boards of the blues club in loads of lineups\, and this time he will doing a damn fine job of adding key colour. \n  \nPip has made slide playing his own and appears to be embracing some new material from his English routes. Damn!! \n  \nAt some point in the proceedings\, backline blues club bedrock Roger Watkins and Elliot Fuimoano will join these two with some damnably good rhythms.

Their songs comment on life experiences with a distinctive Wellington flavour. \nWellington Heads have evolved their own sound through the influences of Kansas-style blue jazz\, the swinging rhythm n blues of Louis Jordan and Ray Charles\, Chicago blues and infused with Pacific/Hawaiian rhythms and Latino feels. \nSharp and energetic\, Wellington Heads entice people to the dance floor\, regularly delighting audiences at Wellington venues\, and playing festivals\, corporate and private functions. They are frequently invited to perform outside of Wellington\, and over recent years have played in Tauranga\, Manawatu\, Nelson and at Wellington Jazz and Blues Festivals. \nWellington Heads have recorded five albums\, their last ‘Southern Night Sky’ released in 2016. This critically acclaimed album continues their unique sound with a mix of rhythm n’ blues\, swing\, soul and latino grooves. In combining this with their previous albums Wellington Heads have built an extensive repertoire of eclectic original songs. \nWellington Heads’ regular six-piece lineup is: Neil Worboys– vocals\, guitar\, harmonica; Bill Wood– guitars; Geoff Keith– bass; Greg Crayford– drums; James Tait-Jamieson– saxophone and Nick van Dijk– trombone\, trumpet. \n
