Gig Review: Tami & Jay Neilson (October 18, Wellington)

Tami Neilson: This is Tami Neilson! With Special Guest Jay Neilson Meow, Wellington Friday, October 18 One of the trickiest things for Kiwi musicians, I think, is keeping touring fresh. There’s the old album/tour/album cycle – which is more about releasing a single, then touring, then releasing a single sometimes in this long, extended death-of-the-album […]

Gig Review: James Taylor (February 5, Napier)

James Taylor Church Road Winery, Napier Sunday, February 5 If there was ever any doubt this was a perfect combination of singer and setting it was quashed as soon as James Taylor bounded onto the stage and praised the venue and bright blue sky a handful of times in and around the opening numbers. James […]

Tami Neilson and Her Hot Rockin’ Band of Rhythm! San Fran Friday, March 11 The main thing I took home from this show – a terrific gig, featuring Tami and band up at the San Fran in Wellington – is that this Hot Rockin’ Band of Rhythm is exactly what a supporting band should be. […]

Tami Neilson: Don’t Be Afraid

Tami Neilson Don’t Be Afraid Neilson Records/Southbound If the brand new album, Don’t Be Afraid isn’t quite as good – as a whole – as last year’s tremendous Dynamite! then, at the very least, it contains a small handful of moments that, taken individually, provide greater highlights. And with time it’ll feel every bit as […]

Delaney Davidson: Lucky Guy

Delaney Davidson Lucky Guy Rough Diamond/Southbound As I said here, just recently I’m a bit late to the party with Delaney Davidson, I’ve been aware of him – and I liked that set of duo/crooner records he made with Marlon Williams, and I loved his production/input on last year’s Dynamite! by Tami Neilson. That’s I […]
