Touring New Zealand for the first time in nearly 30 years the master slide guitarist will share the stage with his long-time friend and musical brother-in-arms, as well as his son, Joachim Cooder on drums, and vocalist Juliette Commagere.
Don’t miss out book your accommodation at the affordable Aspen House Hotel, from $89 an ensuite room, first in best price. Aspen is well located in Auckland City, five minutes from Queen St, the ideal location for shows. If you are a visitor ask us about getting you tickets.
Auckland is the best place to see shows- the venues are more intimate and you can usually get a ticket. Most exchange rates make it cheap too!
Cooder has enjoyed a wide ranging solo career, as well as playing and recording with such luminaries as The Rolling Stones, Eric Clapton, Taj Mahal & Randy Newman. Last year saw the release of I, Flathead, the final part of his acclaimed Californian trilogy, inclusive of Chavez Ravine & My Name Is Buddy.
Rolling Stone lists Cooder as one of the ten best guitarists of all time, rightly placing him amongst an elite group whose guitar style is instantly identifiable by a single note, in Cooder’s case, a haunting, heart-rendering slide tone.
