The Grant Haua Explosion….See the former Swamp Thing rocker and Solo Acoustic Maestro Grant Haua in his final form, reunited with his Swamp Brother Michael Barker on Drums and Hurricane Elis' Brian Franks on bass, a night of acoustic and electric fretwork fireworks that's not to be missed.
Final Public Shows for This Summer
A seasoned artist who touches all kinds of points in the blues and folk from Taj Mahal and JJ Cale to dialled down Stevie Ray and even an adventurous touch of acoustic James Blood Ulmer. Seems like this is Grant Haua's time' Graham Reid (Elsewhere Magazine).
"AWA BLUES" In the Top 25 Albums of the year 2021, ROLLING STONE FRANCE
Kicking off proceedings with an Awa Blues acoustic solo set Grant will present his deep timbre soul blues vocals/acoustic guitars and foot percussion (Cajon/snare). This performance relates heavily to his Maori culture which are at the heart of these songs.
Grant wants the audiences to feel like they're guests in his home and like the songs, his home is pretty simple but it's warm and friendly. So welcome.
It may be simple, and at times does feel closer to pre-war blues than music from 2021, but it is also incredibly honest. What you hear is what you get with Grant, and in this throwaway and image-centred false world that is something very special indeed. Kev Rowland music.net.nz
