The EAGALS
The EAGALS are in town! Prepare for one of those nights taking it to the limit with these witchy women (definitely not girls from yesterday) … expect great harmonies and that country-rock sound, fun, pathos and rich talent from around the country with New Zealand’s only all-female Eagles tribute band.
Roy McGuinness
Roy McGuinness! We’ve all heard of him. In fact, his name is often preceded with the words “the inimitable”! Known for his sense of humour, cheeky grin, and a great voice for delivering his favourite Irish songs and ballads. He says, “Had a ruff time over the past year. But here he is! Up and performing again. Bringing you a selection of sad ballads, humorous tails and all possibly delivered in a kilt. What more could you ask for?” What indeed? (He’s the one on the left in the photo.)

Julie and Murray Kilpatrick
Murray has been around the Wellington Folk scene almost forever and Julie has been around as long as she has known Murray. They’ve hosted the Pukerua Bay folk club from their living room for ages and are world famous in New Zealand for forming the Famous Plimmerton Bush Band which ran for about a decade in the 1980-1990s,
Murray plays guitar, mandolin and accordion, and Julie plays ukulele, dulcimer and whistles. Both lend their voices to interpretations of covers, in Julie’s case often quite quirky ones! Murray often accompanies other musicians, but this might be the first time they have performed as a duo. Julie was awarded the AR most improved performer award in 2024.
Note: The concert will be on the first floor, with access via stairs or the lift. You may have to press the button at the side of the door to gain access to the building.
Supper is not provided, but you’re welcome to purchase drinks, tea and coffee and snacks at the bar. If you want to purchase alcohol, a member of the Johnsonville Club will need to sign you in. Feel free to make your purchases on the way in and bring them up to the room.
