BARRY SAUNDERS - There is always the essence of the spirit of the New Zealander in the reflective songs of Barry Saunders. Whether via his ever popular domestic country band The Warratahs or on his solo albums including Weatherman, Magnetic South and particularly Red Morning, Saunders’ best tales are borne of New Zealand. And combined with encompassing the landscape of the country in his troubadour-inspired lyrical structures, the focus is on deliveries from the heart. And what sets the songs alive is Saunders’ unique rhythmic swagger….  (Review from the Waikato Times)

DOG RUFF - A fantastic duo featuring blues harp and guitar, an excellent sound for a Sunday afternoon in the gardens.

The Pohas - 3 piece consisting of Elton & Hayden on guitars and Tony on percussion. Playing lesser known covers from - Black Keys, Pearl Jam, Smashing Pumpkins, Foo Fighters, Queens Of The Stone Age, Nirvana etc.

RPM - Mike Mitchell, Gareth Mitchell and Alan Rakiraki. Certainly amongst the most talented, and well-loved musos in town, this is definitely one not to miss.

The Groove -  The Groove is a talented 4 piece ready to rock the wine and food festival, with their amazing selection of blues and rock music!

Johnny & The Cashtones - (In their own words) the best hard-rockin-chicken-hoppin-foot-stompin-cuntry-punkin music of the day!
