The Undercurrent presents Bill Lake's Slow Bake!
“Gentle, sometimes witty and just as often moving reflections at every turn” – Graham
Reid.
Guitarist, singer and songwriter Bill Lake is one of New Zealand’s most respected and
long-serving practitioners. For more than four decades the singer and guitarist led the
iconic country-blues band The Windy City Strugglers, as well as playing with pioneering
rock group Mammal in the 70s and fronting brassy funk-rockers The Pelicans in the
80s. His songs have been covered by Midge Marsden, Darren Watson, Kokomo, Rag
Poets and Marg Layton.
Bassist Steve Hemmens played with Bill in Mammal. Recently returned from many years
in the UK, he adds warmth and swing to the mix.
Long time popular musician Alan Norman plays percussion, accordion, guitar and
occasional piano. He is a member of both NZ’s seminal country band The Warratahs, and
Wellington band Rag Poets.
