Little Bushman & Electric Wire Hustle - Two Wellington Shows
September sees Little Bushman and Electric Wire Hustle teaming up for two very special nights of vibrantly detailed sound at one of Wellington's premier live venues, the San Francisco Bath House, on 23 and 24 September.
This will be the first time since April that Little Bushman have taken to the stage in NZ, after the release in the same month of their third studio album Te Oranga, which was followed closely by a stint in Australia which saw them wow audiences at the prestigious Byron Bay Bluesfest, as well as in Sydney and Melbourne. Little Bushman is eager to present these new shows with Electric Wire Hustle to their favourite hometown crowd in Wellington.
"I'm pretty excited about these shows with EWH - I reckon it's a perfect eclectic match for the audience to bliss out on. It's all about the fans... I wish I could be in the crowd, drowning in the frequencies and letting go of any mundane weight - mean!" says Little Bushman's Warren Maxwell.
This week, Electric Wire Hustle wrap up their latest European tour with a final show at the UK's Big Chill festival, which sees them join a line up of heavyweight international talents including headline act Kanye West. EWH's extensive European summer tour has spanned two months, 20 shows and 10 countries. Then, it's time to head home for a spell. As well as these two incredibly special nights, EWH will also play four more shows throughout NZ, including their other hometown of Christchurch.
"It has been an amazing tour in Europe. The band has been playing better than ever and the audience responses have been incredible. As sad as we are to leave, we're looking forward to performing in NZ again and it will be great to bring our energy and experiences from this trip home," says EWH drummer, Myele Manzanza.
This is the first time since 2008 that these two bands have come together - and it is sure to have been well worth the wait.
