Great North at the Sunday Sit Down

Great North are returning to New Zealand with a five-date tour in July – their last for the foreseeable future.

They’ll be joined by special guests Brendan & Alison Turner

See them at Blue Smoke’s much loved Sunday Sit Down afternoon concert series this July.

It’s been a busy eighteen months for Great North, with two European tours and the release of two albums – The Golden Age and The Caravan Recordings. For this homecoming tour, Hayden and Rachel Donnell reunite with bandmates Matthew Hutching (pedal steel) and Dale Campbell (vocals, keys) to showcase new and familiar songs, and share stories about how much cheaper dairy products are in the UK.

Forever restless and with no fixed abode, Brendan & Alison Turner seem to have developed a strange love of driving long endless distances across the country, throwing open the old guitar case for whomever might lend them an ear, playing a mix of original acoustic Americana/Country/folk, with Appalachian style harmonies and songs where everybody gets shot.
