The New Zealand Symphony Orchestra is set to become the orchestral force behind the already powerful psychedelic blues-rock quartet Little Bushman. With the orchestral score composed by award winning classical composer, John Psathas this will be a collaboration of historic amplitude. For fans of powerful, soulful music, be it classical, Pink Floyd or Miles Davis, this will be an unforgettable experience.
Lead singer Warren Maxwell (ex Trinity Roots, Fat Freddys Drop) says the band is excited about collaborating with the “most accomplished orchestral ensemble in Aotearoa.” Having performed with another NZ orchestra in July 2008, Warren, bassist Tom Callwood, drummer Rick Cranson, and guitarist Joe Callwood have some knowledge of what’s in store: “That was such a mind-blowing experience, that we thought it would be crazy to pass up the opportunity to do it again,” says Warren. “But bigger this time and with the NZSO in our hometown – Wellington!”
For those who missed out on the Auckland performance, or saw it and must participate once again, the Labour Weekend show will offer the perfect opportunity for a Wellington weekend to remember. Being such a huge opportunity for them the concert will also be recorded for release early to mid 2010.”
Whoever is already aware of Little Bushman and their unparalleled, dynamic version of 60s inspired blues rock will know that the mesh of these two intense musical mediums will be mind blowing.
