Homegrown 8 piece-funkmeisters, Blue River Bay, are just one of the acts on the Blowout Stage this coming weekend. The CoffeeBar Kid had a bit of a chat to Cam, from the band.
Blue River Baby ‘BRB’ are a New Zealand 8 piece funk dub psychedelic rock band flowing from the misty mountains of Wellington's hills and magical valleys, formed in 2016 their name stands to remind us of a time when our rivers once ran clean and clear.
You’ll love the bands high energy, powerhouse grooves and slow burners with lead singer Ivy Padilla’s killer vocals. BRB bring with them horns from Southside of Bombay, a bold rhythm section and tasty yet deadly musicians who play with many of Wellingtons favourite bands.
Destined for the big festival stages of NZ and beyond the majority of BRB are former or current students of Whitereia, NZSM and Massey music schools. 2019 was a standout year for BRB who played to 20,000 on NYE, then released a self-titled Debut album which hit #1 on the NZ Indie (IMNZ) Top 20 Album Chart and #8 on the Official NZ Music Album chart, gaining three weeks in both charts and received a bunch of radio play around NZ. BRB’s single Walk of Shame’ Hit #20 on the UK iTunes Blues Chart, and at home their singles ‘Blue River Baby’ reached #1 & ‘Blackyard Town’ hit #7 on the NZ iTunes charts.
