THE RAVEN MAVENS, SUPPORTED BY FRANK JOHN AND ERIN MANU - Meow, 8pm, Thursday 25 July
The Raven Mavens are Wellington jazz/blues duo Cindy Muggeridge and Marian Carter, two slinky songbirds who have a love for the evergreen, bright and breezy, jazzy songs that take you places and put a twinkle in your eye. Cindy is a veteran of some of the capital's finest blues bands and Marian is in demand as a vocalist with several bands. With Cindy on funky piano and Marian on clarinet, and with both providing vocals and sweet harmony, these two fun loving performers bring a sassy, sizzling, happy-go-lucky slant to living that will warm the coldest night.
