Music at Mangawhai Tavern

 

Feelers tour remastered debut album
The Feelers debut album Supersystem can only be described as a stone cold Kiwi classic. Unleashed in August ’98, it rushed to the prized number one spot a week later. It stuck around in the Top 10 for 28 weeks, sold over 83,000 copies and went 5 times platinum.

Album of the year in 1999, Supersystem was remastered and reissued in October and sounds bigger and better than before.

On CD and digital formats it will also come out on double LP vinyl for the first time

“We’d wanted to do the reissue for a little while now,” says frontman James Reid. “As it’s now 20 years on from the original demos, it felt like it was the right time. I love the concept of Supersystem being on vinyl as well. I’m stoked about that.”

The Warratahs, Tami Neilson & Delaney Davidson

Hot off the heels of this year's Church Tour: The Lost Highway, Tami Neilson, Delaney Davidson and Barry Saunders with his band The Warratahs will reunite for a one-off concert at Mangawhai Tavern this summer.

Kiwi legends The Warratahs with their sublime mix of country and rock'n'roll are the perfect band to dance the night away to with hits like 'Hands Of My Heart' and 'Maureen'. This year The Warratahs celebrate 25 years in the music business and the good times just keep on coming.

Delaney Davidson returns from a year of extensive international touring to treat us to his masterful blend of noir story-telling. This one-man-band is in a league of his own when it comes to special performances and he is an absolute must-see.

Tami Neilson and her accomplished band take the stage to perform an impressive array of songs from her extensive catalogue. Performing since she was a young lass, Tami Neilson is fast becoming one of NZ's best-known performers and is a truly superb vocalist.
