TRANSFER TOUR
Four-person vocal group, the Manhattan Transfer, tour New Zealand between August 31 st and September 3rd. They play Christchurch on August 31st; Dunedin, September 2nd; Wellington, September 4th; and Auckland on September 6th.
Originally pegged as a nostalgia group, the Manhattan Transfer have now moved on to mix more contemporary material with the show-biz style songs for which they originally became known.
Group members, Tim Hauser, Janis Siegel, Laurel Masse and Alan Paul come from varied musical backgroundsthat include R & B bands, folk trios, New York girlie groups and straight Broadway musicals. Together, the four have been described as putting on a show that features them as "humourously agile dancers' as well as fine singers.
