The Bing Turkby Ensemble
About The Bing Turkby Ensemble from Palmerston North
From
Turakina, via Castle Xanthros, all the way to sunny Palmy, the Bing
Turkby Ensemble brings you a theatrical rock show like no other.
Guitar, bass, drums, sax, trombone, accordion, cardboard swords,
UFOs, and wigs are all involved at various points. The last word in
stupid rowdiness, the BTE have defended the Bolivian Mumbling Award
successfully for three years.
Starting
in 1996 as one man, a wig and a tape deck, the band now features this
cast of miscreants:
Bing
Turkby: rowdy geetar, yelling, accordion, sax, ukulele, master of
Sleipnir the 8-legged horse, slayer of the philosophical
wishy-washiness, favourite colour: blue.
MacDeth
– bass, ukulele, the clap of thunder, growling like a demon in
torment, taunter of the feckless, wizard level five, master of the
keys, the scroll and the scrubbing brush.
Slapskins
McBOOOM – drums, computery stuff, ukulele, clapping heartily with
good cheer, knower of the slightly arcane, swordmage triumphant,
diviner of the bottomless depths wherein dwell the sacred secrets.
