DESCRIPTION:To remind you that we are here – a weekly YouTube playlist\nOh\, and a small as itty bitty gig guide… \nThis week: An “I’ve run out of time” playlist\nYes folks\, it’s happened – a post lockdown week made of pressure and busies. So with some apology\, but still a good viewing experience\, I give you someone else’s playlist.

The lovely Alex is now the venue manager and Damian and he are speaking regularly. Be certain that we’ll let you know the re-opening night as soon as we have it! Roll on level 1… \nHere’s the link to the playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLfMFaUHI6MGU6na64YBKlTctnfyatV7lu \nGig Guide: Online and bluesish gigs!\nWith the reopening of some venues\, there are less. \nSpark are live streaming on Wednesday and Sundays at 7.30.\nWATCH HERE: https://www.facebook.com/events/238477527430607/ \nAnd of course Vodafone are doing the same style of event on Thursdays\nhttps://www.thesound.co.nz/home/music/2020/04/vodafone-lounge-jams-dave-dobbyn-hollie-smith-tiki-taane.html \nDiscovered the Bush League while talking to a mate in NYC.

SUMMARY:YouTube Playlist - the 70's!
DESCRIPTION:This week: Getting Stuck in the 70’s \nCrikey! A time warp of wonder this week! I was cheating\, looking up lists of top 10 blues acts\, and I came across a Rolling Stone article called “1970s: 10 blues albums Rolling Stone loved that you never heard.” It sent me down many a wondrous rabbit hole and soaked up many hours. So\, I’ve found clips from all of the artists. Sometimes I’ve used covers\, and sometimes audio only (as few as possible). Sometimes ootoob just didn’t deliver\, so I substituted songs for those I could find\, added some collaborations\, and got a wee bit carried away and went overtime! I made up for the many guitarists by putting heaps of Memphis Slim at the end (because keys ) \nHere’s the link to the article. https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-lists/10-blues-albums-rolling-stone-loved-in-the-1970s-that-you-never-heard-164633/ \nAnd here’s the link to the playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLfMFaUHI6MGVV4LM2jUsqkSd6ed4IURWA \nAnd HAPPY BIRTHDAY KEN FORD!!!!! \n  \nGig Guide: Online and bluesish gigs! \nBOP Blues are live streaming THIS WEEKEND! Featuring NZ Blues wonders…\nhttps://www.facebook.com/events/681008272696385/ \nSpark are live streaming on Wednesday and Sundays at 7.30.\nWATCH HERE: https://www.facebook.com/events/238477527430607/ \nAnd of course Vodafone are doing the same style of event on Thursdays\nhttps://www.thesound.co.nz/home/music/2020/04/vodafone-lounge-jams-dave-dobbyn-hollie-smith-tiki-taane.html \nDiscovered the Bush League while talking to a mate in NYC.

DESCRIPTION:To remind you that we are here – a weekly YouTube playlist of NZ blues gigs –\nOh\,  and a small as itty bitty gig guide…. \nWhile there is no doubt you can do this all by yourself – it’s fun!\nEach playlist is about an hour* long.\n*(Which is about how long it takes to find the online gigs!) \nThis week: I went on a wee journey and came with … ! \nI was talking to Den Cameron from Recorded Music NZ today\, and he said there is a bunch of creativity going on out there in NZ right now. Good-o I thought – let’s go find some lockdown stuff… we-ell that was crickets for blues\, but maybe I haven’t got the right vernacular. (The who\, what now?) What I found were some lovely\, funny\, talented\, clever collaborations – so there’s a wee stray away from blues in here… \nBecause we’re coming OUT of lockdown soon\, (maybe\, please) I got onto “hope” – which led me to a favourite\, Hopetoun Brown. I went overboard on these – because awesome… and excuse the indulgence… Hope also led me to Sonny Day\, which led to other 80’s blues legends. And the-en – bringing it on home to the club – just to remind you it’s here and we might see it again sometime… \nThanks again for the lovely feedback you’re sending – makes it all worthwhile!\nHere’s the link…\n \nGig Guide: Online and sometimes bluesish gigs with an NZ focus. \nStellarize are live streaming on Facebook every Sunday at 3pm\nhttps://www.facebook.com/events/661527297965233/?event_time_id=661527297965233 \nMarlon Williams is releasing a full length video this Sunday am\nhttps://www.undertheradar.co.nz/news/17225/Marlon-Williams-Announces-Live-At-Auckland-Town-Hall-Online-Film-Premiere.utr \n

SUMMARY:Neil Billington Band
DESCRIPTION:Described as the “Hendrix of the harmonica“\, one of New Zealand’s premier harmonica players\, Neil Billington\, will be returning to the Blues Club backed by the consummate skills of Deane Hunter on guitar\, Ross McDermott on bass and Richard Te One on drums. \nNeil is a frequent performer at music festivals around the country\, playing with a wide selection of top national musicians. His versatility on the instrument is unsurpassed and he is equally at home whether playing in the ‘Chicago-style’ of Little Walter on the blues harp or reflecting the more sophisticated jazz sensibilities of Belgian jazz great\, Jean ‘Toots’ Thielemans\, on chromatic harmonica. \nNeil has recently returned from yet another tour of Japan\, where he has previously guested with New Zealand’s Mike Garner at the ‘Live Magic’ blues festival in Tokyo\, and was invited to play with the lead act\, slide-guitar legend Sonny Landreth\, described by Eric Clapton as ‘one of the most advanced guitar players in the world’. Neil has also featured as a guest international performer at the Moridaira Hohner harmonica festivals. \nSupporting Neil are Deane Hunter\, one of the most individual and inventive guitar players on the local and national scene\, Ross McDermott\, a master of the electric bass\, and Richard Te One\, the “shuffle king” on drums\, combining to create a rhythm section of unsurpassed feel and drive. Fasten your seat-belts for a night of high octane blues. \nNeil Billington Band – Capital Blues at the Crossroads Thursday 22 August\, 2019. Video by Michelle McRae:

DESCRIPTION:Capital Blues at the Crossroads is pleased to welcome the Red Dog Saloon Band back to Jack Hackett’s on the 24th October.

SUMMARY:Carol Bean\, Terry Casey\, Dave Murphy
DESCRIPTION:These long-standing devotees of blues music\, Carol\, Terry and Dave\, will swap and turn-about their original tunes and their musical styles\, either backing each other up or egging each other on. Dave’s take on finger-picking style blues\, Terry’s blistering harp\, and Carol’s guitar hooks and bluesy voice promise a night of variety and fun backed by; Richard Te One drums\, Miklin Halstead bass\, Deane Hunter guitar. \nTerry Casey is an integral member of the Wellington blues scene. He fronts his own band and is the go-to blues harp player for many musicians including Darren Watson\, Dougal Spier\, and Dave Murphy. Terry’s original songs are rhythmic\, hard hitting and often funny. He has almost enough songs for an album – watch this space. \nDave Murphy isn’t just a bluesman\, a Piedmont picker\, and vocalist\, he also leans towards country ballads and has perfected the picking style of Chet Atkins. He is in a duo with Janet Muggeridge and plays in the Red Dog Saloon Bandwith Dougal Spier. Like Dave and Terry\, Dave and Carol have performed together regularly. They were featured guests at the NZ Blues Festival in Rotorua where Dave opened for acclaimed American slide blues player Doug McLeod. \nThe blues is a music made by people who have struggled\, have hard and true stories to tell and do so in a voice that is compelling. Dave Murphy\, 40 years a journeyman on New Zealand’s blues highway\, is one of those characters.Graham Reid \nCarol Bean has performed for Capital Blues at Cuba Dupa\, ‘Lady Sings the Blues’ and Julie Lamb’s ‘Wild Women of Wellington Sing the Blues’. Carol grew up watching blues musicians in LA; Mississippi John Hurt\, Lightnin Hopkins\, Mance Lipscomb\, Taj Mahal\, Ry Cooder. Drawn to ‘swampy’ songwriters like Lucinda Williams and Tony Joe White\, Carol has written and recorded three albums\, and guested at festivals in NZ and Australia. \nCarol Bean delivers some serious messages and is at her best when she errs to the gritty\, personal blues. When the mood drops\, she reveals another\, more intimate\, side. When she gets the band kicking you know she must shake walls in pubs and clubs. Graham Reid \nAvailable on the night: Carol Bean’sNext Bus Out(2014) $15; Crossing the Dirty River(2009) $10. Dave Murphy’s Yes That’s Me: Dave Murphy Plays the Blues CD/DVD(2008) $30
