Skin & Bone have recorded their debut album and are leaving their Dunedin base for a rapid tour of Te Wai Pounamu that will them the length of the island, from Invercargill to Nelson, and East and West coasts to boot. This is the final show of the tour in the beloved hometown.Come and take a comfy-cushy seat at the gin-and-tonic end of the Cowboy Lounge. But not for long, as their swingin' tunes will get your toes tapping and you may find it hard to stay in your seat.
Skin and Bone are:
John Dodd (vocals, bass)
Mike Moroney (vocals, geetar)
Anna Bowen (vocals, fuddle, mandarin)
Emily Sterk (clarinet)
Steve Hudson (brush and shovel)
Skin & Bone's debut 15 track album 'Last Bus to Brockville' is a quirky collection of Dodd and Moroney originals with a few western swing covers to keep them grounded. Occupying a musical niche they call Cowboy Lounge music, Skin & Bone members are not new to the road with most of them having toured together in other line-ups, both here and overseas. New-comer, clarinettist Emily Sterk (of the Dunedin Symphony Orchestra) finds herself in this band with her former Logan Park school teacher, such is the age range diversity of the unit. As fiddle player Anna Bowen says, "All of us have been connected to each other in some way or other over the years: Mike and John have been playing together for 3 decades!"
Since the band's formation in 2021, they have been darlings of the swing dance scene in Dunedin, attracting keen Lindy Hoppers to their gigs. All five are vocalists; tight harmonies and complex arrangements being a big feature of their sound.
With their infectious energy, impressive musical pedigree, and captivating blend of styles, Skin & Bone is a band you won’t want to miss.
