HELLO SAILOR
The classic Kiwi band, with unmistakable hits that are embedded in New Zealand culture, such as Gutter Black, Blue Lady and Lying in the Sand. This will be Hello Sailor's first Tauranga performance in ten years, with their last performance here prior to the passing of band members Dave McArtney in 2013, and Graham Brazier in 2015.
With the band dedicated to keeping the music and memories alive, the current members of Hello Sailor will put on a stellar show with the classic sounds that Kiwis love. The band are powered by the indomitable rhythm section of Rick Ball on drums and Paul Woolright on bass, who provide the Sailor energy and attitude, while Harry Lyon and Jimmy Taylor take care of the weaving guitars, with Stephen Small on piano and Andy Dixon on saxophone completing the package.
