HOOT - This tight 4-piece original blues band from Dunedin, is freshly cut food for the soul. Frontman and second generation blues singer Oscar LaDell expertly leads each tune with stirring, velvety vocals and dynamic lead guitar licks. Nestled right in there behind
him is Ruairi Griffin’s shimmery rhythm guitar hooks, punctuated by Oliver Robson’s solid bass riffs and Rani Cohen’s funk infused drumming. Hoot’s set rambles through songs of hardship and longing to hypnotic crescendos that work any audience into a
fever. These boys really know how to howl. The band have three albums available through Bandcamp
JO LITTLE & JARED SMITH - A well known fixture of the Dunedin and wider Southern music scene. These veterans of the road have toured NZ and Aus many times over. With velvety harmonies and nostalgically crafted songs that dip their hand into a pick and mix bag of blues, alt-country, folk and soul. This duo’s set ranges from foot stomping to heartbreaking. Whatever the mood, their catchy originals will hang in your head long after the last tune has rang out. Their album ‘Live at The Boathouse’ is available through bandcamp
