THE EASTERN (Harbour Union) - The Waterside

from LOVE CHCH - A Seismic Selection Of Music From Christchurch by chart.org.nz

	/

about

The Eastern are string band that roars like a punk band, that swings like a gospel band, that drinks like a country band, that works like a bar band, that hopes like folk singers, and sings love songs like union songs, and writes union songs like love songs, and wants to slow dance and stand on tables, all at the same time.

Continually described as NZ’s hardest workin’ band they’ve spent the last few years playing over 200 nights a year up and down nz and beyond. They’ve toured with and opened for Fleetwood Mac, Steve Earle, Old Crow Medicine Show, The Jay hawks, Jimmy Barnes amongst others but are just as happy on a street corner or in a backyard singin and kickin’ their heels.

Happiest on tour and with two well selling records and three e.p.’s to their credit they show no signs of quittin’ or tagging out. With their second record ‘Arrows’ out in Australia in may the eastern have been glad to be muckin in at home and having a chance to take part in the ‘Harbour Union’ Project.

HARBOUR UNION
A collective with the idea of collectin'....trading songs for donations is the plan...songs of heart swung with the warmest acoustic instruments and the sharpest electrics sung with guts and hope....
