Swampy Americana sounds from Paddy Burgin, Andrew Kerr and Alan Norman, with very special guest Marian Price-Carter (Carter Price Trio, The Raven Mavens).
Irishman Andrew Kerr (ex. Jacky Tar) and Alan Norman (The Warratahs, The Rag Poets) are now a trio with Paddy Burgin (The Wooden Box Band, The Zimmermans), and his magical guitars.. Paddy, a world-renowned luthier, was a member of The Scarborough Connection, who featured on Andrew and Alan’s critically acclaimed 2023 release ‘For the Record.’
A swampy melting pot of country, folk, americana and blues, they combine a mutual love of story-telling and rhythmic grooves with narratives about the human experience. They perform predominantly original material, with contributions from each member, calling on a wide range of instrumentation including piano, acoustic and Weissenborn guitars, accordion, bodhran, and percussion.
“…..one of the year’s best albums in Americana/folk….a thoughtful, passionate, and musically rich collection that holds up under repeated listens….” Anne Hollister

They have the pleasure of being joined by the wonderful Marian Price-Carter (clarinet, saxophone) for the Vogelmorn upstairs show. Marian featured on the aforementioned ‘For the Record’ album, and is a mainstay of the Wellington music scene as a member of CP30 (Carter Parker Trio) and The Raven Mavens.
Vogelmorn Upstairs is not a wheelchair accessible building. There is an accessible bathroom in the space. This is an all ages venue but those under the age of 16 must be accompanied by a designated adult after 8pm. The Vogelmorn Precinct is a community space located in a residential area. With that in mind, the team ask that you be kind to others' and that when you leave the gig, you do so quietly to avoid disturbing our neighbours.”
