Skinny Brothers
Over 10 years ago, Hello Sailor began — as an acoustic group playing blues and Rolling Stones songs at the tiny Kiwi and Globe taverns in Auckland.
After their reformation last year, Sailor take another step into the past this month when the frontline of Brazier, Lyon and McArtney tour as an acoustic trio, playing originals and covers.
“Not too skinny, not too fat” is the name of the tour — which should be how the band look after it's over. They'll be travelling in a station wagon and lugging their own gear.
Having enjoyed playing at the Rainbow Warrior concert in the acoustic format, the trio decided to hit the road while the final details of the Hello Sailor album are ironed out. Recorded at Harlequin inAuckland and Electric Ladyland studios in New York last summer, mixed and re-mixed, final negotiations for international release are taking place now, and it looks as though the album will be out in September.
