Part of the National Jazz Festival Tauranga.

The man that people call ‘The Godfather of Acid Jazz’, Hammond B3 legend Brian Auger, will set the keys on fire in this one-night-only concert.

His distinct style combines jazz, rock, soul and funk, fused into a rhythmical firework that is clearly recognizable to his millions of fans.

With over 20 records to his name on the RCA and Warner Bros. labels, Brian Auger has accumulated a Grammy Nomination, 10 albums charting in Billboards Hot 100, and a #1 single. Brian's bands over the years have featured Rod Stewart, Long John Baldry, Julie Driscoll and even Jimi Hendrix. In addition Brian has recorded with great luminaries including The Yardbirds, Eric Clapton, Van Morrison, Eric Burdon and Down To The Bone.

His new incarnation of the Oblivion Express is a family affair featuring son Karma and daughter Savannah, who live up to the Auger name and make the Oblivion Express smoke.

Check your seatbelts, the Oblivion Express is about to blast off!
