  • Erin & Co - The South Island Summer Tour

For the first time, traveling kiwi Singer/Songwriter Erin hits the road with musical accompaniment, in an extensive South Island Summer Tour. Wanaka show features the Southland's 2014 Guitarist of the Year, 'Sugar' Dan Sugrue (TieDye) on Lead Guitar.

You may have had a taste of her live solo show around the country in the last two years, but with backing from well-seasoned musicians Steve Fowler and Kalem Mallon (Sweetleaf, Podocarp, and Paper Creatures), the unique blend of "Rhythm and Soul" takes on a fresh Folk-Rock flavor; tricky to pin down and unlike any other. Funky bass lines and crashing cymbals enhance catchy, thoughtful lyrics, and simple rhythms are offset by Erin's own distinctive vocal stylings and unfettered creative process. Add a touch of roots, and a pinch of blues, and mix well.. Spanning various genres, tickle your taste-buds with completely original, popular, home-grown talent.

Constant collaboration keeps the mouth watering - special guests throughout the tour include Gloria Grace (freelance Violin), Carlos Guerrero (Lead Guitar - Pants Off, Esc-Shift-Return), and 'Sugar' Dan Sugrue (Lead Guitar - Southland Guitarist of the Year 2014, Tie Dye), as well as support and assistance from full Christchurch band Podocarp, Wellington's Newtown Rocksteady, Steve Fowler Solo, David Bell, and Queenstown's Sam Maxwell.

This is a show not to be missed from an up-and-coming New Zealand Songwriter. Most shows are free, so check out when they'll be hitting a town near you.
