SUMMARY:Adam McGrath of The Eastern Live and Solo
DESCRIPTION:Adam McGrath\nFriday 8th June\nShow from 8pm\, Dinner 6pm\n$20 Entry\nThe rough riding\, hard talking\, loud singing front man from The Eastern hits the road and arrives at the Playhouse for a great show full of story and song \n  \nAdam McGrath is a folk singer stationed wherever he lands. He travels the state highways and byways of New Zealand\, Australia\, Europe and parts beyond\, slinging songs and offering up low rent barroom philosophy with his band of misfits and chancers\, The Eastern. He hopes for the best\, prepares for the worst and believes in the poetry of Smokey Robinson and the Miracles and the fury of word on the page. He lives alone\, cooks infrequently and is scared of flags that blow to the right. He is happiest in front of a jukebox as the call for last drinks is given\, because jukeboxes are getting harder to find\, and the last drinks call means the lock in is ever closer. His songs have gathered more than their share of good reviews in NZ and overseas\, he’s been nominated for a couple of serious music awards (including the Apra Silver Scroll)\, Graham Reid from the NZ herald called him ‘NZ’s toughest minded songwriter’ and Barry Saunders from The Warratahs simply described him as “The Truth”. \nWith The Eastern and solo he has shared stages with and opened for Fleetwood Mac\, Steve Earle\, Old Crow Medicine Show\, Jimmy Barnes and many more. But he takes the most pride in getting up and putting it down\, in both small towns and big\, choosing real gigs over showcases and the joy of shaking hands and sharing beers with the folks met along the way. \nHis song ‘Hope and Wire’ became the inspiration for the tv3 drama series ‘Hope and Wire’ directed by Gaylene Preston\, and was noted for his community work during the Christchurch earthquake. \nThe Eastern are renowned for their ferocious roof raising live shows and have gathered a reputation for being the country’s hardest working band playing up to and beyond 200 shows a year\, every year. Their latest album ‘The Territory’ was described as one of the best albums of 2014 from any band in any country by No Depression magazine. \nAlthough the gathering of such plaudits makes him blush behind his rapidly graying beard\, McGrath is very thankful and hopes that in someway this might help him in continuing to pay his rent through his roundabout stories and admittedly pretty crappy guitar playing. A people’s player\, he works his ass off for any audience he finds himself in front of. Through\, yarns\, ballads and barnstormers\, he goes looking most nights of the year for that deep well of magic that threads through the humble folk song. Described as “two parts Woody Guthrie\, one part revival meeting and one part group hug” a McGrath show goes straight for the spirit level in all of us. Looking deep for the heart and hoping to reach the thinking part of the brain all the while strumming his three chords like his life depended on it. Which of course it does\, as of course it should. \nJoined by a hard driving and sympathetic rhythm section “The Roaring Days”\, A McGrath show swings wild and raw\, swelling your heart\, moving your feet and going deep for your thinking muscle. Stories and songs and boundless energy\, this a show to be moved by.
