      This year we will have the day starting with Boom Boom Deluxe who captivate the Rockabilly and Rock n’ Roll scenes by storm, with two acclaimed albums of original 50’s inspired Rock n’ Roll and a non-stop high energy performances and leaving tired but happy dance-floors behind them.  Fronted by NZ Rockabilly royalty pin-up legend Hettie LaBombe and partner harmonica blowing D.D. Deluxe their modern Rockabilly delivery with hints of Jazz and Swing (courtesy of Hettie’s singing and playing style) and also heavy rock and blues (D.D’s contribution) makes for a truly unique experience.  

      Next up is The Lady Killers, these wonderful ladies need little introduction.  From a whisper to a scream and everything in between, Tina Cross, Suzanne Lynch and Jackie Clarke make beautiful music bursting with harmony and power.  The Lady Killers' approach is simple; take great songs and lovingly accessorise them with harmony. The Lady Killers sound defies pigeonholing, wilfully crossing genres from pop, R&B, jazz, gospel, country to a whole lotta rock and gleefully name-checking iconic artists such as Queen, The Beatles, Neil Young, Neil Finn and Dolly Parton. These gals sing anything that takes their fancy!  A Lady Killers performance is a dazzling vocal tour de force full of wonderful pin-drop moments, warmly presented by three women who know how to entertain and have a good laugh too!   

      To wrap up the day is The Jordan Luck Band, and who does not know the words to all the Exponents songs!!  This iconic kiwi singer and his band are every gig playing the best of all those iconic Exponents tracks we know and love as well as some of Jordan’s favourite kiwi classics. From ‘Who Loves Who The Most?’ to ‘Victoria’…. ‘Why Does Love Do This To Me?’ to ‘Ill Say Goodbye’… and so many more favourites, the Jordan Luck Band are sure to bring the party!
