THE WHISKEY LIVE is a series of concerts presented annually by THE WHISKEY bar in Auckland’s Ponsonby Road as a celebration of New Zealand Music Month each May. Featuring a broad spectrum of New Zealand musicians performing one of a kind, limited capacity shows; THE WHISKEY LIVE is fast becoming a headline attraction of New Zealand Music Month each year.
Peter Urlich has been a vibrant, paid-up member of the NZ music scene for over 30 years so it’s very appropriate he opens the WHISKEY LIVE series of shows over NZ Music Month.
Since the halcyon days of Th\ Dudes, he has always been the consummate entertainer and his latest line-up, The Peter Urlich Sextet, is a perfect vehicle for his love of great songs. The band\s repertoire pays homage to many of the great \Pop Singers\ of their generation, starting with Sinatra, Nat Cole and Tony Bennett and moves through the decades with spirited, sultry and soulful versions of all the classic tunes that have coloured our lives since the 60\s. Peter\s on-stage energy, voice and style is matched by a hand-picked group of wonderful players including Peter Hale (keyboards) and Lewis McCallum (sax). Last year\s performance at THE WHISKEY was stuff of legend - don\t miss this one!
The line up includes: AHORIBUZZ, Andrew Keoghan, Anika Moa, Annabel Fay, Avalanche City, Barnaby Weir, Bic Runga, Cairo Knife Fight, Che Fu, Clap Clap Riot, Dave Dobbyn, Dave McArtney & Friends, Don McGlashan, Dukes, F IN MATH, Greg Fleming & The Trains, Greg Johnson, Hello Sailor, Jan Hellriegel, Jason Kerrison featuring The Babysitters Circus, Jonny Love, LA Mitchell, Luke Thompson, Motocade, Nairobi Trio, Nathan Haines and the Dream Band, People of Paris, The Peter Urlich Sextet, Ruby Frost, The Jordan Luck Band, The Thomas Oliver Band.
