John Olding & Band Wednesday 8th July

Written By Peter Parnham

LTR: Pete Parnham, John Olding, Cameron Bennett

John Olding—a familiar face to fans of Café One-2-One and Kiwigrass—brings a stellar bluegrassy Americana set to The Bunker. Joining him on stage are Pete Parnham on bull fiddle, Cameron Bennett on Dobro and lap steel with guests Linda Whitcombe on fiddle, and Steve Gerrish on mandolin to add extra colour during the set. 

Drawing from the rich traditions of Americana and Western Swing, this promises to be a dynamic, inspiring performance where every musician brings their own unique flair.

Musicians, take note: local club performers will kick things off in the first half, so be sure to bring your instruments!
