“Cements Ebony Lamb’s standing as one of the countries coolest & most sultry voices” James Bellfield, NZ Listener
Their live performances are a feast of warm melodies and impassioned ballads, tempered by foot stomping country-infused rock and roll. Whether delivering there own intricately crafted compositions, or breathing fresh life into long lost standards, Eb & Sparrow have wooed New Zealand audiences with their technical prowess, luscious multi-layered harmonies.
Sewn and grown around the poetic songwriting and powerful cowgirl soul vocals of Ebony Lamb, this increasingly diverse outfit have captured the hearts of discerning country fans and music critics, opened for major international and national support slots including artists Rodriguez, Pokey LaFarge, Beth Orton, Tami Neilson, Marlon Williams & the Warratahs.
“an extraordinary showcase of originality and musicality, which stands out in the current New Zealand landscape” Barry Saunders – The Warratahs
