EILEN JEWELL ON SALE NOW
Championed by roots music enthusiasts and alt-country fans alike, Eilen Jewell is often mentioned in the same breath as fellow travellers Gillian Welch and Jolie Holland. Her latest album, the wonderfully titled 'Queen of the Minor Key', is Jewell's strongest statement yet. It led one critic to declare her 'sometimes as darkly damaged as Lucinda Williams, at others as defiant and teasing as prime Peggy Lee ... she's mighty good'.

ALABAMA 3 ON SALE NOW
Alabama 3 Acoustic and Unplugged is the version of the group that will visit New Zealand in March: a four-piece outfit consisting of founder Larry Love (vocals), Aurora Dawn (vocals), Rock Freebase (guitar), and Harpo Strangelove (harmonica). With this line up they bring a whole new dimension to their well-loved songs. It may not be acid house, but this country-gospel-blues is played with a rhythm that compels you to dance. Performing in this stripped down acoustic setting, the band’s aim is to show the songs in a format reminiscent of the people that have been their inspiration, particularly old delta blues players like Fred McDowell and Bukka White.

The son of maverick Texas songster Steve Earle - and carrying the middle name of his fatherʼs mentor, the late Townes Van Zandt – Justin Townes Earle may have inherited some of his fatherʼs rebel spirit, yet in many ways the lanky, tattooed 28- year-old has forged his own path and style.
