Laura Collins, known for her soulful vocal delivery and upfront entertainment, brings a show with a ‘whole lot of brass’. Expect blues, soul, boogie and swing. You’ll hear Etta James, Aretha Franklin, Fats Domino, Ray Charles and more. Laura says “the emphasis is on having a hugely good time, with the brass enabling the dynamic energy to be turned up to 10!”

Laura is joined by Kiwi music icon Wayne Mason on keys, John O’Connor on sublime lead guitar, George Barris and Richard Te One bringing a powerhouse rhythm section. Adding that soulful uplift, the brass /horn section are Manawatu locals, James Tait Jamieson (saxophone), Craig Collis (trombone) and Neville Lauridsen (trumpet).
