NZ Live - Herriot Row

From NZ Live, 2:31 pm on 8 September 2017

This audio is not downloadable due to copyright restrictions.

Auckland based folk/rock singer Simon Comber already has two albums to his name.  For his latest project though,  he has formed a band and traveled to the United States to record with one of his heroes.  The resulting album borrows from a couple of New Zealand poets and uses dark lyrics and some unusual guitar tuning to create a very interesting texture.

"Lesser Stars" is the name of the album  and Simon Comber is in our Wellington Studio this afternoon along with a rhythm section comprised of Stuart Harwood on drums and David Flyger on Bass.
