A rare chance to see this seasoned and iconic singer/songwriter and his great band in concert.
For many years Otis has been performing his own brand of unusual and riveting indie pop - a sort of melodramatic reptilian lounge folk crossed with psycho-billy sleaze: dark comedic slices of life moulded into short pithy pop styles.
Taking inspiration from early folk rock and then from the punk era Maces music has been described by DON McGALSHAN as ...songs are crafty and beguiling and utterly unlike anyone else.
and by GRAHAM REID as one of our best kept secrets
On the set list there'll be a few choice co-writes with local lyric maestro RICHARD VON STURMER and also with Manchester poet John Cooper Clarke.
For this show on bass guitar and backing vocals John Segovia and on drums Rick McShane add the sparkle and drive.
Just have a listen to the pod cast from Radio New Zealand.
