Kiwi blues music legend coming to East FM
Hi everyone, PJ here, and this Saturday, community radio station East FM has a special guest coming to play live in the studio, while talking to us about his musical life deep down in the blues.
Darren Watson started out as frontman of the much-loved, dynamic rhythm and blues band Chicago Smoke Shop in the 1980s, and since going solo he’s put out six substantial albums that have been well-received on his home turf and internationally.
Darren Watson’s coming to play live at Auckland’s Wine Cellar (St Kevin’s Arcade, K’ Rd) on October 10, and his new album, Getting Sober For The End Of The World, is out on October 1.
With those exciting events on the horizon, Darren Watson’s coming to visit with us at East FM, this Saturday, September 12, from 3pm to 5pm.
On The She’ll Be Right on Saturdays Show, with me, PJ Taylor, we’ll talk about his career, the new album, the history of the blues, and if we’re really good, he’ll play live – because that’s what he does – entertains the masses, makes them think and delivers a good dose of reality.
On the new album, Watson has an important NZ work, a song in tribute to the memory of Ernie Abbott, who was tragically killed in the bombing of Trades Hall in 1984.
So please join us, with Darren Watson, our special guest on The She’ll Be Right Show, this Saturday from 3pm, on East FM.
