If you simply can’t get enough of the very best that home-grown Kiwi music can produce put a circle around this date – Friday 12th September.

Raglan Club is proud to host three of the original members of Herbs in their ‘Herbs Unplugged’ tour, with supporting artist Shona Laing. It’s a night which promises to deliver straight up the very best these two New Zealand music ‘institutions’ have to offer.

Through the decades since Herbs began as a group of friends in a South Auckland garage in the 1980’s, the band has steadfastly remained true to its founding musical impulses, belting out songs that championed social and political issues. In recognition of this the band was inducted into the NZ Music Hall of Fame in 2012.

Shona Laing, burst on to the airwaves as a 17 year old in the early 70’s with her first two singles “1905” and “Show Your Love” gaining gold status. In 1975 Laing moved to Britain where she continued her craft for seven years at one stage performing vocals for Manfred Mann’s Earth Band.

In 2013 the ever-green performer was also inducted into the NZ Music Hall of Fame.
