big festival<br />

SOLO: Guitarist Reuben Anderson said the band received<br />

many positive comments from the crowd.<br />

Then afterwards, when we<br />

went out into the crowds, people<br />

stopped us and gave us really nice<br />

compliments. That was really<br />

nice to hear.”<br />

They agreed playing on the<br />

same stage at Sir Dave Dobbyn,<br />

Gin Wigmore, Stellar*, Greg<br />

Johnson, and Hoodoo Gurus<br />

was the definite highlight of their<br />

career to date.<br />

The band plays at The Bower<br />

in North New Brighton each<br />

Sunday as part of a three-month<br />

residency.<br />

Playing at Selwyn Sounds and<br />

at The Bower every weekend will<br />

help their career.<br />

Said Anderson: “I think it’ll<br />

really help us get out into the<br />

local music scene.<br />

“A lot of people who watched<br />

us were from Christchurch and<br />

the surrounding area. I think<br />

it’ll really help our publicity. As<br />

Scarlett said, so many people<br />

came up to us afterwards and<br />

said how much they enjoyed our<br />

set.<br />

“We had a lot of people say<br />

they’re going to come to our next<br />

gig and they’re going to look out<br />

for us. It is really encouraging to<br />

hear that people are digging the<br />

sort of music we’re playing.”<br />

Zephyr played some Led<br />

Zeppelin and Blondie covers, as<br />

well as their own originals during<br />

the 40-minute set at Lincoln.<br />

•Zephyr will be playing<br />

at The Bower beer garden<br />

from 1pm on Sunday.<br />

REPRESENT: Four<br />

Cashmere High students<br />
