28 October - Eat My Shorts
These guys will blow the roof off with their amazing 10 piece sound! Formed in the early ‘90s, when Gameboy, The Fresh Prince and frosted tips were all the rage, Christchurch band Eat My Shorts was at the forefront of the live Acid Jazz and Funk genres. Join founding members Greig Bainbridge and Jennine Bailey, at the Riverside Jazz Club as they revisit their classic repertoire with a brand new Eat My Shorts lineup. Soul, blues and funk are the predominant styles, covering artists such as Donald Byrd, Lou Donaldson, James Brown and Aretha Franklin, and featuring a jazzy 10 piece line-up.
If you love Aretha, James and Otis, Eat My Shorts are the band for you. Their brass section consists of tenor/alto sax, trumpet and trombone and they are lucky enough to have the magnificent Jennine Bailey on vocals. They also welcome Tucker MC as their resident wordsmith and social commentator.

Just whatever you do, expect the unexpected ...

11 November - The Calzones
The Calzones are a 3 piece, pan genre guitar trio led by Ben Eldridge and augmented by Jonty O'Connor on drums and Dougal Canard on electric bass.
The group has its roots in the traditional guitar trio sound, bringing to mind players like Barney Kessel and Kenny Burrell, but they also love to interpret other genres through the guitar trio lens as well as perform works by more modern players like Jim Campilongo.
Pop tunes, rock n roll, surf guitar, travis picking and loungey latin grooves are all styles that the group likes to play so be sure to come and check out what promises to be a great evening of music as the group plays two sets that are sure to be brimming with classic guitar tunes.
