Where have they been? Has it been three, maybe four years? Was it a break-up? ....a hiatus? Fear no more! The parpin' stompers are back and you know what they've been doing since their last heavy show at the Leigh Sawmill..... they've been honing their craft to new levels of soul and perfection, distilling blues and funk to it's essential elements with nothing more than two trumpets a bass clarinet and the golden tonsils of one Tim Stewart. Did I mention the boots? The stomp? the thumping heartbeat of this band? Wait till you see Tim's new stomp-box, hand-whittled from native timbers in coastal Otago and fastened with copper nails. He's joined by furious wind men, Finn Scholes and Nick Atkinson and this trio will blow minds during a one-off spring-time afternoon concert at the fabled Leigh Sawmill Cafe! Kids 13 and under get free entry with a ticket-holding adult and it's a good idea to ring the Mill and book your table once you've purchased your tickets. We can't wait to light up the band again! Hopetoun Brown lives!
