Harry Lyon says; “We had having a great time at our gigs in recent years and it’s great to see audiences enjoying the songs we just love to play. We’re super excited to have Pluto with us too. They’ve always been a favourite of ours and when I saw them recently I thought they would be a great fit for the show at Totara St.”
Hello Sailor in 2024 is dedicated to the music and memory of Dave McArtney and Graham Brazier. The current line-up is as close as fans will get to the band’s classic sound, powered by the energy and attitude of Rick Ball on drums and Paul Woolright on bass. Harry Lyon has stepped up as lead vocalist with he and Jimmy Taylor taking care of weaving guitars. Stephen Small on keyboards and saxophone completes the package. Their shows feature Hello Sailor, Pink Flamingos and Graham Brazier favourites, hit songs from Harry’s back catalogue and his 2018 critically acclaimed hit solo album “To the Sea”.
