Americana Crew T-Bone Release Debut Album 'Good ‘n Greasy'

Seven years in the making, Pōneke Americana five-piece T-Bone at long last share their debut offering Good ‘n Greasy. Ripe for a hoedown and slow-cooked to perfection, the album hosts a hearty line up of bluegrass and blues tunes "peppered with that T-Bone flavour - acoustic twangs, searing fiddles and just a hint of char-grill", and was recorded at Newtown's Surgery Studios late last year. The band, who ritualistic meet-up to rehearse every Monday night, describe themselves as an eclectic lot, with "a mandolin playing ex-chef from the Far North, a fiddle playing wine importer from New Jersey, a Dublin-born spearfishing songwriter, a guitar slinging laboratory assistant from Taranaki and a gardening double bassist from Karori".

The whole band, joined by internationally renowned US act John Oszajca, are heading on tour to mark the arrival of Good ‘n Greasy, with shows planned for Wellington, New Plymouth, Whangateau, Tāmaki, Kerikeri and Napier this month and next...
