A NEW music recording programme 

will fill a vacuum left since the 

earthquakes. 

Developed with the modern music 

industry in mind, BeatONE is a new 

programme for students run by the 

Papanui Youth Development Trust. 

Trust manager Hamish Flynn said 

there’s been a real need for a programme 

like this ever since the February 

22, 2011, earthquake. 

“Pre-quake you had places like 

Zebedees, White Elephant and Fuse, 

but they’re pretty much all gone now,” 

he said.

Bottle store plan doubles in size 


A REVISED application for 

a controversial bottle store 

on Trafford St has now been 

submitted to the city council. 

A hearing was set for the end 

of March, for a bottle store at 2a 

Trafford St, but it was withdrawn 

just days beforehand because the 

applicant wanted to double the 

size of the shop. 

Now, the applicant 

Sarmarth Rajeshkumar 

Limbachiya, has publicly 

notified the updated 

details, confirming that it 

will be twice the size but 

opening hours would be 

shorter. 

The site has been controversial, 

with residents vowing to fight 

the application in spite of their 

frustrations. 

Get ready for 

winter now 

“We’re still encouraging 

people to participate. 

There’s rock solid support,” 

Trafford St resident Colin 

Fussell (left) said. 

Mr Fussell alongside 

another resident Bruce 

Tulloch have organised 

a petition with more than 

1100 signatures and 

counting. 

“The expansion has just given 

more clout to what we originally 

said,” Mr Fussell said. 

They do not want to encourage 

anti-social behaviour and 

think there are more options 

for buying alcohol in the area 

already. 

“They are making a profit from 

public harm and it has to stop,” 

Mr Tulloch said. 

Mr Limbachiya has not 

responded to calls from 

Nor’West News. 

New objections can be made 

but have to get to the city council 

by May 16. 

The city council said a new 

hearing date will not be set 

until it has reviewed the new 

application, which will be after 

May 16.

THE 

REPORTER’S 

DESK 

Tuesday May 2 2017 

Inside 

THE CITY’S north-west has 

certainly been busy this week. 

The controversial liquor store 

set for Trafford St has reached 

yet another milestone as the new 

application made it back to the 

city council. 

Hopefully there are no more 

speed bumps in that saga – 

residents just want to find out 

whether the bottle store gets the 

green light or not. 

If anyone out there has a 

spinal injury, please reach out 

and contact Cindy Allison. She’s 

a woman with an amazing story 

to tell. 

Cindy has made it through her 

own battles and there have been 

many, including cancer. 

But she is now giving back 

and helping people regain movement 

after their spinal injuries 

through her doctoral studies.

PhD student never gave up 

ashion 

TWO TYPES of cancer, a head 


injury, losing a home – you 

could have forgiven doctoral 

student Cindy Allison if she had 

decided to throw in the towel. 

But instead, the 56-year-old 

Canterbury University student 

has never given up trying to get 

her PhD in health science. 

She first enrolled for her 

course three days before the 

Gardening 

September 4, 2010, earthquake, 

which immediately put her 

studies on hold. 

Then she managed to get a 

head injury. 

“In my second year of study, 

I fell and hit my head on some 

rocks and got a head injury,” she 

said. 

She was then displaced from 

otoring 

her home after the February 22, 

2011, earthquake. 

And finally, if that was not 

enough, cancer struck. Not once 

but twice. First it was breast 

cancer, then melanoma. 

It was a week before the first 

class was set to begin last year 

when a regular mole check 

asty Bites 

provided Ms Allison’s second 

diagnosis of cancer. 

“It was only early stages – I 

didn’t have to have radiotherapy 

or chemotherapy. But the 

DOCTOR: Soon to be doctor, Cindy Allison has overcome 

many battles to get back to her studies. 

melanoma was scary, though. I 

sunbathed too much as a child 

thinking I would never get old,” 

she said. 

The breast cancer was at such 

an early stage, it was “a nuisance 

more than anything,” Ms Allison 

said. 

But now everything is coming 

together again. She’s bought a 

house, finished her cancer treatment 

and is raring to get her 

studies back on track. 

She’s working on a programme 

to help people with 

spinal cord injuries regain 

movement. 

“Everything has felt a bit up

movement. 

in the air …but I feel like I’m 

finally getting my brain back,” 

she said. 

Currently seeking people to 

participate with spinal cord 

injuries, Ms Allison hopes to 

recruit people to take part in the 

course she’s developed based on 

the Feldenkrais method. 

It’s a method that helped 

Ms Allison when yoga, pilates, 

physiotherapy, stretching and 

everything in between hadn’t 

worked. 

•Potential participants 

who have had their injuries 

for at least 12 months 

can find out more by

In Brief 

VANDAL UPDATE 

The city council has confirmed 

complaints of vandals at Lake Roto 

Kohatu and said around $15,000 

has been spent this summer alone 

cleaning up. Kay Holder, city council 

operations manager for regional 

parks, said there is ongoing work 

for redesigning facilities and an 

upgrade to the entrance is planned. 

Signage has been installed to provide 

appropriate behaviour guidelines. 

LIBRARY OPENING 

The Bishopdale Library and 

Community Centre is looking good 

for a July opening. Construction has 

passed the halfway mark and the roof 

is on. City council staff are confident 

the building will be ready for the 

public in a few months. Contractors 

will remain on the site for nine weeks 

and then the city council can begin 

fitting out the new centre. 

PARKING REMOVAL 

Street parking outside properties 

on Sawyers Arms Rd is an accident 

waiting to happen, residents say. The 

parking has caused a complete lack 

of visibility when the residents come 

out of their driveways. The parking 

stretches between the entrance to 

the Graham Condon Sports and 

Recreation Centre and the Papanui 

Leagues Club. City council staff will 

have to consult all affected parties.

FLAME FILES 

Keep calm 

and patient 

to help kids 

locked in car 

• Mark Thomas, fire risk 

management officer 

A COUPLE of instances this 

week of young children locked in 

cars with the keys in with them. 

Generally when this occurs mum 

gets more and more anxious as 

time goes by. This in turn causes 

the kids to become agitated and 

of course the level of distress then 

ramps further upwards. 

Every now and then with children 

who are either not restrained 

or are old enough to free themselves, 

a patient and cool parent 

can get them to unlock the vehicle 

from inside. 

This happened at the antarctic 

centre last week after the mum 

phoned AA, which phoned the 

Fire Service, which responded. 

She then persuaded an obviously 

bright wee soul to flick the locking 

mechanism. They then left and the 

fire truck turned up to an empty 

park. To be fair to mum she apparently 

phoned AA back so no job 

turned out to be a good job for our 

Fire Service friends at the airport. 

Larger liquor store bid riles resident 

Trafford St 

resident and 

protestor 

Bruce Tulloch 

writes about 

an application 

to increase 

the size of a controversial 

bottle store proposed for 

the street 

LAST October a liquor licence 

was requested for a store on 

the corner of Trafford St and 

Harewood Rd, which would be 

open until 10pm, seven days a 

week. 

In the middle of suburban 

homes, with other alcohol outlets 

accessible, there was strong 

opposition. 

A petition collected more 

than 1100 signatures and 36 individual 

objections were lodged, 

with support from the local 

community board, the Anglican, 

Catholic, Presbyterian and 

Salvation Army churches and 

the YMCA. 

The majority of objectors were 

prepared to attend the district 

licensing committee’s hearing 

on March 29, but a week before 

this, the applicant applied 

to double the store size. 

This required a new application, 

and the hearing had to be 

put off. 

This revised application was 

published on Anzac Day, with 

the hearing date to come. 

PROTEST: Residents are opposing an application to open a 

bottle store on Trafford St. 

Doubling the size will only 

increase the reasons for rejection. 

While existing objections 

are carried forward, new objections 

can be made, provided 

they are received by Tuesday, 

May 16. 

The Sale and Supply of Liquor 

Act states that sale, supply and 

consumption of alcohol should 

be undertaken safely and responsibly, 

and harm directly or 

indirectly caused, including any 

to society generally or the community, 

should be minimised. 

Canterbury University 

research has found close 

proximity to alcohol outlets is 

associated with increased serious 

violent crime, and other ill 

effects are well-documented. 

There has been opposition 

country-wide to the rash of new 

suburban liquor stores for good 

reason. 

It is very important that the 

city council listens to the wishes 

of the community. 

We have seen the damage 

caused in Christchurch when 

the public are ignored, as in the 

proposed changes to Victoria 

Square or the fiasco with Redcliffs 

and other schools. 

The chaos in the United 

States, I believe, shows the massive 

damage when trust and 

collaboration break down. 

This case will indicate whether 

that lesson is understood.

An artistic slice of New Zealand 

culture is being served up in the 

town of Little River. From May 6, 

Little River Gallery will be exhibiting 

works by artists Robin Slow and 

Brian Flintoff. 

Titled ‘Whare Huruhuru Manu,’ 

the exhibition of Slow’s lyrical 

paintings show the cultural stories 

of Maori past and present with 

luscious depth using symbols and 

motifs in precious oxides. Flintoff’s 

delicately carved instruments in 

bone and native timbers add to 

breadth of the exhibition. 

There is a further dimension to the 

exhibition, music composed and 

played by Bob Bickerton, inspired 

by Robin’s paintings and using 

Brian’s instruments. CD’s and

Anger over maintenance contracts 

Residents 

look at doing 

the work 

themselves 

• By Charlotte Carter 

RESIDENTS FRUSTRATED at 

the lack of maintenance carried 

out by the city council have 

decided to take matters into 

their own hands. 

The Northwood Residents’ 

Association says their suburb is 

suffering from a “maintenance 

deficit” since the earthquakes 

and have started a voluntary 

group to tidy up the area. 

However, the city council says 

it has not dropped maintenance 

levels in the suburb. 

Association president Clive 

Smith said the problem started 

after the February 22, 2011, 

earthquake. 

“The standard of maintenance 

really has dropped in the past 

few years . . . and we understand 

the council has had excess 

expenditure in other places, but 

now we’ve had enough, we’re 

over it,” he said. 

Mr Smith attributes the lapse 

in maintenance to the system of 

using different sub-contractors 

in the area. 

But city council acting operations 

manager neighbourhood 

and sports parks Jane Lodge 

said: “The level of service in 

the local and sports parks 

maintenance contract has not 

dropped since the Christchurch 

earthquakes.” 

Mr Smith said the association 

has started recruiting through a 

Facebook post. 

It has asked for people “willing 

to give some time to improving 

areas around here.” 

“You may feel that we 

shouldn’t need to do this as 

we pay high enough rates. But 

city council only have limited 

budgets for this kind of thing,” 

the post said. 

Mr Smith said the association 

was only trying to raise the idea 

that they think the standard 

isn’t as high as it could be, and

that parts of the suburb really 

do look a bit shabby. 

Ms Lodge said the city council 

is willing to work with the residents 

to help facilitate and assist 

with park clean up initiatives.

Student music 

recording 

programme 

•From page 1 

These music programmes fell 

by the wayside due to a lack of 

funding and leaders of the groups 

involved moving on, Mr Flynn 

said. 

“It was a direct result of the 

earthquake,” he said. 

But with its funding secured, 

BeatONE is the first of its kind 

aimed at getting younger students 

into learning the art of music 

production early. 

“Our programme focuses on 

the essential elements involved 

in the writing, recording and 

production of music,” said course 

co-ordinator Tom Linklater. 

It will cover the basics from 

how to use a microphone properly, 

right through to producing 

a professional sounding band or 

electronic recording. 

“The intention of the programme 

is to give the young 

people of Christchurch the opportunity 

to learn about the topics we 

cover, meet others who are interested 

in exploring these areas, and 

build a community for creative 

collaboration,” Mr Linklater said. 

•Workshops will be run on 

Mondays after school and on 

Saturdays. To register online,

Cotswold to join cycle programme 


COTSWOLD Primary School 

is raising funds to install new 

tracks and provide bicycles for 

pupils. 

The bikes in schools 

programme is run across the 

country to get more children 

cycling in a safe environment on 

school grounds. 

If successful in its fundraising, 

Cotswold will only be the second 

school in the city to run the 

programme. 

Last year Rawhiti School in 

North New Brighton installed

She said the school is looking

to complete the project but is 

well on the way with a $15,000 

grant from the New Zealand 

Transport Agency and $5000 

from the Southern Trust.

CBHS beat Waimea, 

set sights on Burnside 

• By Andrew King 

THE OPENING round of the UC 

Championship has begun with 

a number of north-west schools 

looking to stamp their mark on 

the competition. 

Solid work before and after the 

halftime break allowed Christchurch 

Boys’ to grab a bonus point 

victory over Waimea Combined 

in the opening round of the UC 

Championship. 

The defending champions recorded 

a 52-21 victory at home on 

Saturday, with coach Rob Smith 

saying the 15-minute period 

before and after the break was 

crucial. 

“We scored about four or five 

tries in that period,” Smith said. 

Now CBHS look towards their 

upcoming match against close 

rivals Burnside High. 

Burnside lost their opening 

round match against St Thomas 

64-5. 

Burnside first XV manager 

Matt White said while they started 

well, they left too much space 

out wide and were punished for 

it. 

Looking ahead, White said 

CBHS will be tough. 

“You are playing one of the top 

schools in the country so you 

know it will be tough,” he said. 

St Andrew’s had a bye in the 

opening round. They will be on

the first of which will be against 

Roncalli-Aoraki in Timaru. 

Meanwhile, St Bede’s were 

beaten by “a better team” in their 

opening match, losing 15-10 to 

Lincoln High on Saturday. 

St Bede’s coach Gerry Davidson 

said Lincoln played the 

better game. St Bede’s will face 

Marlborough in Christchurch on 

Saturday. 

Maadi Cup winning duo named 

in national junior rowing team 

• By Andrew King 

THEY TOOK on the best in 

New Zealand, now rowers Ben 

Taylor and Thomas Russel will 

take on the world. 

The duo have been named in 

the national junior rowing team. 

The two 17-year-old St 

Andrew’s College students were 

a part of the winning Maadi Cup 

squad which not only brought 

back the top prize for the first 

time in the college’s history, but 

the Springbok Shield as well. 

They will row in the four 

coxless at the junior world 

rowing championships in 

Trakai, Lithuania, from August 

2-6. 

Rowing is in Taylor’s blood, 

the last time the school raised 

the shield was when his father, 

Andrew, was in the boat 34 years 

ago. 

Now he has been named in the 

national squad, he said he has 

one up on his father. 

“He is really supportive, really 

interested and completely stoked 

that I have made the team,” he 

said. 

Russel made the team last year 

and said he was nervous going 

into the trials, but once he got on 

the water he just got stuck into 

his work. 

“I was more shocked about 

making it the year before, but I 

am still extremely happy to back 

that up,” he said. 

Taylor and Russel have been 

in the boat together for the past 

four years and both agree having 

each other there really pushes 

them to perform better. 

“You see each other on the 

water but then spend a bit more 

time together out of it as well, 

and that means we really want to 

push for each other,” Russel said.

Taylor said he has to give 

credit to coach Dale Maher, who 

has been the “perfect finishing” 

coach. 

“He won seven jubilee cups in 

his eight years while coaching 

the Rangi Ruru Girls’ eight, so 

he knows his stuff,” Taylor said. 

Both said they are incredibly 

proud to be able to represent 

their country in a sport they 

love.

HOME & HEATING 

Get rid of dampness 

in your house 

Now wITH the colder and wetter weather 

on its way, home owners are focusing on 

ways to make their homes comfortable, warm 

and healthy for their families throughout 

winter. RISING dAmp is an issue that affects 

many of our older properties which suffer 

from poor, or no, insulation. In Canterbury 

especially, post-quake, many people have 

relocated to homes that suffer from rising 

damp which can be associated with health 

problems. Independent tests have shown 

that up to 40 litres of water can rise from the 

ground and enter a house every day, leading 

to mildew, mould, condensation and musty 

smells. moulds can produce various allergic 

reactions and the frail, elderly and very young 

are especially vulnerable. 

Canterbury Foam Concrete Ltd is a 

locally owned and operated firm. The team 

understands the problems caused by rising 

damp and are there to help. They will come 

to your damp home and pump a lightweight, 

flowable foam concrete under your timber 

floored home. Specially adapted for our 

New Zealand conditions and applications 

it provides a layer of protection against 

rising moisture. An unexpected benefit that 

the team at Canterbury Foam Concrete 

have noticed recently, is that many owners 

of properties which had underfloor foam 

concrete installed, reported that it also 

provided protection against liquefaction after 

the earthquakes. 

Contact Canterbury Foam Concrete Ltd 

now for your free, no obligation quote and 

complimentary appraisal of your underfloor 

ventilation needs. Phone 03 376 4608 or

The facts about 

home ventilation 

Balanced Pressure vs Positive Pressure 

Under the New Zealand Building Code, 

all buildings, including residential, need to 

be suitably ventilated, either with opening 

windows or forced ventilation. Clause G4.1 

states: “The objective of this provision is 

to safeguard people from illness or loss of 

amenity due to lack of fresh air.” There are 

many benefits to forced, or mechanical, 

ventilation over opening windows, including 

warmth, security, reduction of outside noises 

and reduction of condensation. 

Traditional domestic ventilation systems 

are ‘positive pressure’. They bring air in from 

outside via the roof space and force the stale air 

out through gaps around windows and doors. 

The incoming air from these 

systems has to be heated or 

cooled to keep the house warm 

in winter or cool in summer. 

The Smooth-Air HEX390 is 

a ‘balanced pressure’ system. It 

extracts air from the house and 

at the same time brings in fresh 

air. These two streams of air 

pass through a heat exchanger, 

which warms incoming air in 

winter and cools in summer if 

air conditioning is being used. 

This means that up to 80% of 

the energy which would be 

Balanced 

Pressure 

Ventilation 

wasted using a traditional positive pressure 

system is recovered, resulting in significant 

energy savings and therefore lower heating or 

cooling costs. 

Until recently, balanced pressure ventilation 

systems have been considerably more 

expensive than traditional positive pressure 

systems. However, with Smooth-Air’s unique 

manufacturing capabilities, a HEX390 

balanced pressure system can be installed for 

a similar price as a traditional positive pressure 

system.

GO-Advanced 

Omega-PC Fish Oil 

Herbs & natural 

ingredients give powerful 

support for your 

immune system! 

It is well known how important 

omega-3 fatty acids are to good health. It 

is estimated most people don’t even get a 

third of the recommended omega-3 fatty 

acids on a weekly basis. Countries with a 

higher amounts of omega-3 in their diet are 

known to have lower cardiovascular disease 

and, in many cases, better overall health. 

Recent research has shown inflammation 

to be a big part of disease and the ageing 

process. 

Fish oil can help reduce inflammation 

by providing essential fatty acids required 

by the body to heal itself and maintain 

good health. Until now most fish oil 

only contained omega-3 fatty acids in 

triglyceride form. Fish, however, naturally 

contain omega-3 in triglyceride and 

phospholipid form but until recently the 

phospholipid form was lost due to the 

manufacturing process. 

GO-Advanced Omega-PC sets new 

standards in fish oil as it contains 

omega-3 attached to both triglycerides 

and phospholipids. Studies have shown 

GO-Advanced Omega-PC to be far better 

absorbed, leading to increased levels of 

vital omega-3 fatty acids in the organs 

thru giving the potential for more health 

benefits. 

GO-Advanced Omega-PC is produced 

from fresh wild deep sea cold water fish 

using a new advanced and more natural 

cold extraction process that better 

preserves the natural nutrient profile found 

in fish. It is manufactured to high GMP 

standards and is molecularly distilled to 

remove any containments, toxins and 

heavy metals. 

Further info on this revolutionary new 

fish oil and its benefits is available from 

the Natural Health Advisers, Naturopath 

and Medical Herbalist at Marshall’s 

Health & Natural Therapy in New 

Brighton, phone 388 5757. We are always 

happy to help! 

Researchers have shown that certain 

herbs and natural ingredients can 

dramatically reduce your chances of 

succumbing to colds and flu. 

Formulas like Go Healthy “Go Vir- 

Defence” has been based on the latest 

research and has already proved itself too 

many. 

Due to the high potency extracts used in 

this formula most will find only one or two 

capsule daily sufficient to keep our immune 

system at optimum, however at the first 

sign of any immune attack, e.g. headaches, 

sore throat, aches etc the dose should be 

increased to one or two capsules up to 

three times daily. Most will then find the 

symptoms will disappear quickly without 

getting worse. 

Go Vir-Defence contains the following 

powerful ingredients: 

Olive Leaf Extract has become one of 

the most popular ingredients used in the 

treatment of immune attacks as it has 

strong anti-microbial properties that help 

slow the growth of bacteria and prevent the 

replication of viruses. 

Garlic Extract is effective in combating 

bacteria, viruses and fungi and supporting 

the immune system. In general it may be 

used as a preventative for most infectious 

conditions, digestive as well as respiratory. 

The anti-microbial action makes it suitable 

for treatment of respiratory infections, 

influenza, recurrent colds and respiratory 

catarrh. 

Andrographis Extract has powerful 

immune enhancing properties and has 

been shown to help prevent the common 

cold as well as reduce the duration and 

severity of the symptoms of the common 

cold. 

Echinacea Extract is a natural antibiotic 

and infection fighter. It helps kill bacteria, 

viruses and fungi and provides powerful 

immune support. 

Pau D’ Arco Extract assists in enhancing 

the body’s immune system. 

Citrus Bioflavonoids work with Vitamin 

C and support the immune system as well 

as strengthening capillaries and reducing 

inflammation. 

Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant and 

helps counteract many types of bacteria 

and viral infections. 

Elderberry Extract provides nutrients for 

immune support. 

Zinc is an essential mineral for the 

immune system and general health. It is 

required by every cell in the body. It is 

common to have sub-optimal levels of 

Zinc. Zinc possesses anti-viral activity. 

Generally this all-natural formula is very 

safe and highly effective without any side 

effects but due to the high potency extracts 

used please check with us first if you are on 

any prescription medication. This formula 

is also not suitable during pregnancy or 

lactation.

ONLY GO OMEGA-PC retains the natural Phospholipids that have been shown to be so beneficial for Good 

Health BUT are lost in other brands of fish oil due to the less natural manufacturing processes used!

Latest Christchurch news at www.

Denture technicians keep abreast of industry 

developments 

As registered members of the New 

Zealand Dental Council, Ryan Carlton 

and his fellow technicians at Dentures 

Plus in Innes Road are required to 

undertake verified training at various 

courses every year, to upskill and keep 

abreast of new developments in the 

industry. 

“For example, our technicians Thomas 

Gu and Nicole Yee will be attending a 

two-day course later this year on the 

fitting of first-time dentures,” Ryan says. 

In addition, Nicole has recently spent 

four weeks in India as part of a course 

she is undertaking on maxilo facial work, 

which deals with artificial eyes, ears and 

noses. 

“This is a service we may potentially 

offer in the future,” Ryan says. 

Ryan himself has recently returned 

from the International Dental Show, 

which was held in Cologne, Germany. 

“It’s the largest trade show in the world 

for the industry, with manufacturers 

and suppliers from all over the world 

showcasing their products. There were 

over 2300 stands – it was really eyeopening.” 

Ryan says he was particularly interested 

in how digital technology is being 

incorporated into dentistry, for example 

3D printing being used at different stages 

of denture manufacture such as the crown 

and bridge. 

“It’s still in the very early stages, and it 

needs more development, but that’s where 

it’s heading,” Ryan says. 

He believes that in the future, people 

that make and fit dentures will be seen 

as architects rather than technicians, 

with patients being able to download the 

pattern for their dentures the architect 

has designed on computer, and print 

them on a 3D machine. 

In the meantime, he emphasises the 

importance of keeping dentures clean. 

Dentures Plus offers a full range of 

products for denture cleaning including 

denture cleaners, brushes and denture 

baths for soaking the dentures. 

Ryan particularly recommends Caldent 

denture cleaner, as it is non-abrasive and 

effectively removes stains, calculus and 

plaque. 

“It works wonders,” he says. “Years of 

stains and plaque can be removed with 

this product.” 

It can be purchased through 

the Dentures Plus website, www. 

denturesplus.co.nz, for delivery anywhere 

in Christchurch and throughout the 

country. 

Dentures Plus, 396 Innes Road, is 

open Monday to Thursday 8am-5pm 

and Friday 8am-2pm. To make an 

appointment for a consultation on 

denture fitting or repair, phone

FOLLOWING on from the success of his ‘e 

Story of the Blues’ Show & Supper in March, 

modern day Blues guitarist, Ryan Neville is set 

to do it all again next weekend before heading 

off to gigs in USA. 

Nashville Tennessee, Las Vegas and Austin 

Texas are amongst the places Ryan has 

performed over the years. His love of blues 

inspired him to assemble his current show, ‘e 

Story of the Blues’. 

A masterful and colourful stage show 

incorporating live musicians, video, light, and 

sound, ‘e Story of the Blues’ takes you on a 

journey from the famous Robert Johnson 

Crossroads to the backwaters of the Mississippi 

Delta. 

“We share the stories of the famous Chicago 

Blues men and woman that time will not erase!” 

says Ryan. 

Four seasoned local musicians complete 

Ryan’s band, e Midnight Blues Band’ - 

Emmalene Rose Sparey (vocals); Chantelle 

Marie Rakich (piano, keys, vocals); Chris 

Farmer (drums, percussion, vocals); Steve Hill 

(bass guitar). 

“Together we weave the tapestry through the 

decades of the greatest musical entertainers of 

our time,” says Ryan. “Hear the blues, feel the
