Dates: Sat, 28 May 2011 @ 8pm

  • LAUGHTER AND THE BLUES - Gary McCormack & Paul Urbana Jones
  • LAUGHTER AND THE BLUES - Gary McCormack & Paul Urbana Jones

Gary McCormack & Paul Urbana Jones an unlikely combination!  Not so according to Gary who “loves working with Paul. Not only do I love seeing and hearing him play, he’s got a great sense of humour”.

Trained in classical music and guitar, Paul Urbana Jones was brought up on Jimi Hendrix. Crossing over the Blues his soulful voice & sprightly guitar agility are widely admired.

As for his role in this odyssey Gary McCormack says “Me – I’m there to keep the politicians honest and muse on where we are post-earthquakes”.

Laughter and the Blues ‘plays’ at the Golden Gate Lodge at 8.00pm on Sat 28th May. Tickets: $25 available from the Golden Gate Reception or at the door.
