Huge shows on East FM, this Saturday

Phil from Farm Cove

Aloha – back on decks with two radio shows tomorrow – PJ’s mega-whopper Saturday, featuring music by Evan Silva, Karen Davy (Toucan Music), Albi and the Wolves, Sam Ford and Trudi Green and the Soulahula Band, Hoop, Guy Wishart and band, Timbertops, and in tribute by those who have passed –… View moreAloha – back on decks with two radio shows tomorrow – PJ’s mega-whopper Saturday, featuring music by Evan Silva, Karen Davy (Toucan Music), Albi and the Wolves, Sam Ford and Trudi Green and the Soulahula Band, Hoop, Guy Wishart and band, Timbertops, and in tribute by those who have passed – Bernie Griffin, Robbie Robertson, Sixto Rodriguez, Sinead O’Connor, and Tony Bennett, and a whole bunch more.

We’ll be standing in for Tony King on his Budget Breakfast Show from 8am to midday, and then returning to front the She’ll Be Right Show, 3pm to 7pm (NZ time, August 12) on East FM.

Soul man Evan Silva has had a long and hugely interesting life in music, starting out in 1966. It’s with great pleasure we welcome him into the studio at 3.15pm for a chat about his career and to play his recordings, especially from the two most recent albums, Out of the Shadows, and Reihana Street.
Evan Silva and the Collaborators have a big gig at the Auckland Jazz and Blues Club in Point Chevalier on Tuesday, September 5, from 7.30pm.

Karen Davy also has a big gig on the horizon in East Auckland, headlining at Eastern Districts Country Music Club’s concert on Wednesday, August 23, with Ken Strong, as Toucan Music (www.toucanmusic.co.nz).
East FM is thrilled to have a TICKET GIVEAWAY of two double passes for the show. To enter the draw send an email to studio@eastfm.nz
We’ll be talking live to Karen Davy at 11am about what she and Ken are planning for the EDCMC concert, and about the other music shows she presents.

Talk about exciting times, Indie-folk troubadours Albi and the Wolves are beginning a fresh phase, this week releasing a new single, Light After The Dark, and a new album is coming out on October 13 – Light After Dark (AAA Records). They’ve grown in numbers for the latest project, from the super-trio of Chris Dent (Albi), Michael Young and Pascal Roggen, into an ensemble.
They say: “We’re excited to see how folks react to this song. We’re also excited for what’s to come. Some of it is pretty wild, like touring with an 11-piece band! Scary, but exciting at the same time!”
It’ll be another pleasure for East FM to play for the first time the new single Light After The Dark, at 10am, and at 5pm. See albiandthewolves.com

The Ministry of Folk is an Auckland cultural institution for musicians and fans of folk and roots music, all styles. And after featuring them on She’ll Be Right on July 22, we’ll again be playing tracks by Hoop, Timbertops, and Guy Wishart and his band, in the lead-up to their concert Saturday night: www.undertheradar.co.nz...

And we’ll be playing tracks by other friends of She’ll Be Right, Sam Ford and Trudi Green and the Soulahula Band, in the lead-up to their concert in Mt Eden on Friday, September 15. Tickets at www.eventfinda.co.nz...

I didn’t know Bernie Griffin – we spoke a few times at shows, but I stood back in awe thinking about all the magnificent work he did across the NZ music industry. There’s been a wonderful outpouring of love and admiration for the legend of heartland music this week following his passing, so we have to remember Bernie Griffin and his considerable contributions. In our books, his song Hand in Mine, with the Grifters, is one of this country’s finest. It paints a vivid picture. You feel the emotions.
And, of course, we have to mark the recent passing of Robbie Robertson, Sixto Rodriguez, Sinead O’Connor and Tony Bennett by playing their music.

Boom! If I do say so, that’s a huge line-up, even for me.

East FM is East Auckland’s fair-dinkum community-powered public service radio station, on 88.1FM and 107.1FM on local frequencies, nationally and globally at www.eastfm.nz... and on app iHeart Radio.
She’ll Be Right - it’s all about the vibe; it’s all about the groove. And tomorrow, we’re really going all around the musical neighbourhoods. – PJ
