SUMMARY:Milly Tabak & Dave Khan - Winter Jazz Series @ Casita Miro
DESCRIPTION:The winter jazz season should always start with a country act. Milly Tabak\, of Milltones fame\, swaps the grand stages of WOMAD for the intimate chapel of grapes that is Casita Miro. She’s joined by Dave Khan! He’s the long-time lead guitarist for Marlon Williams and key side-man and producer for Reb Fountain. \nMilly and Dave have unbelievable chops and a huge repertoire of the best country songs you’ve never heard before. Khan also brings his exceptional fiddle sound. “The tone of Khan’s violin at Casita will be epic.” says Nick Atkinson “You’re so close to the action you’ll see little clouds of rosin burst from his strings as he bows his well travelled violin. With Milly Tabak at his side they unlock outrageously good sets. They’ll open the winter jazz season with nothing but amazingly hot licks. Come for the embroidered shirts\, stay for knees-up.”

DESCRIPTION:Kevin Mayes & Rosie Whinray met through a mutual love of unaccompanied folk singing. Kev’s background farming in Sussex shaped his repertoire & style\, while Rosie was brought up in the Auckland folk scene. \nBoth now live nearer the head of the fish\, in Shannon (Kev) & Wellington (Rosie). Strong solo singers in their own right\, they also sing together in harmony. Songs of land & sea\, love & war\, beer & wine\, politics\, comedy\, work\, magic\, & sheep: hearty history sung the traditional way. \nRosie’s Dad Paul Whinray was a folk singer back in the days of his youth\, harmonising with Raynor Asher\, & later a world-renowned maker of Baroque flutes & recorders out of his workshop in the Bethells bush. With luck Paul will get up & sing a few songs too!
