Slippin" In Slippin" In
Good feel and groove from Harpoon on this and has gotten even better the more times it has been played at gigs.
FIVE LONG YEARS FIVE LONG YEARS
Trad. slow blues, that is featured on Harpoon's Album, Great Feel, singing, playing and Arrangement.
Harpoon started from a phone call from guitarist, Mat Stevenson to drummer, Lil Goose enquiring if I would like to play some "out there" material and as I have always liked Mat's Guitar style, that was it. We both came from or went through the Miles Davis' "Bitches Brew" Area, so we always got on like a house on fire.
Our singer and harmonica player is the fabulous Junior Hickey who has a great voice and plays cool Harmonica & also is a very good "Scat" singer . On Bass we have the funky Mr. Phil Hoffman who plays great with the drums and has a great bass sound. He also plays some pretty cool Bass Solos.Band/artist history
Harpoon started around 3 years ago and have done nothing but get better and better at each gig. It is a pretty high energy type of music, but we like to play that way as people don't go to see a band as background music. (we hope)
I can see nothing but positive expansion for the band as people in Sydney and Melbourne like the CD a lot, so I can see tours coming up. The next Album will contain the best songs the band has written yet and am really looking forward to it's release.Have you performed in front of an audience?We play all the time. We have played the previous 2 'Brisbane Blues Festivals" and recently played the "Broadbeach Blues Festival". The band is very popular locally and we have a great CD available, and are mixing the recording of our 2nd, CD at the moment.
