member of the NZ music scene for over 30 years and he shows
no signs of stopping.
Closing the series on Saturday 28th May is another who has paid homage to three plus decades in the industry, the man who holds more APRA song-writing awards than any other artist; Mr Dave Dobbyn, performing with his band plus opening support from members of Christchurch based band, Dukes.

THE WHISKEY bar owner, Andrew Bruce is thrilled with the 2011 line-up:
