Dobbyn to visit
It's being hailed as his best work yet, attracting such superlatives as "powerful", "impressive" and "devastating". However it is described, 'Lament for the Young' - the latest album by talented Kiwi Dave Dobbyn, is destined for big things in New Zealand. The release of the album coincides with a nationwide tour commencing 14 August in Gisborne and finishing up in Auckland on 1
September. Dave Dobbyn, and supporting band The Stone People', play in Ohakune for two nights - Saturday 21 and Sunday 22 August - at The Crazy Horse, Ohakune Junction. By his own admission, Dave Dobbyn's 'Lament' j is confrontational and quite different from earlierl works that include 'Slice of Heaven' and 'Loyal'.J "Stark" production and confrontational lyrics combinp in an intense and edgy compilation of
original songs penned by the master himself. Moving back to New Zealand after ten years across the Tasman, Dave Dobbyn takes offence at being referred to as an ex-
patriate Kiwi. The move is timely he says, for two reasons: the arrival of his and Anneliesje's first child in September, and to join the "happening" force currently moving the New Zealand music scene.
