Australian Blues and Roots - unplugged
Few bands have the versatility to cross back to the birth place of their chosen music! Summerland has options galore as the band members are multi skilled in their instruments of choice.
Alex McKean slips on his ancient Wayne wooden dobro and manages to squeeze many styles from this old Australian guitar, sliding from the legendry Robert Johnston to unbelievable tones of Jimie Hendrix - all delivered at less than talking volume!
To compliment the acoustic nature of the entertainment Mark Nightingale settles behind his bull fiddle, and together with Doug Marsden on brushes and JD on rhythm guitar takes you back to an era that is almost forgotten today.
Summerland also has some vintage tenor banjo sounds that evoke the long gone days of river boats and gambling halls from early last century. When was the last time you heard St Louis Blues struck up as a two step?
There is only one band that has this incredible sound in this century!
