Slippery Noodle fuse jazz, Latin, funk and soul to forge their own exciting brand of world music. The trio combines musicians of three nationalities. On bass guitar and vocals is Carlos Pla (Uruguay), on drums, percussion and tenor saxophone Nathan Koretz (New Zealand) and on guitar and vocals Lott Larsson (USA). The sound is undeniable chemistry. From an opening set of classic jazz featuring tenor saxophone, to a bracket of creative original material, the rhythm section lays down a platform of infectious groove, while Lott Larsson weaves inspired guitar melodies. Wonderfully entertaining, Slippery Noodle enriches any concert or event with musical vitality.

Mark Taipari, who charmed us with his guitarmanship and vocals in April, returns as our supporting artist this month. Mark, a talented and experienced Kiwi musician, has delivered classy and relaxed performances for literally hundreds of functions over 30 years in the music industry. We look forward to hearing his relaxed style of blues and jazz again.
