Auckland-based Americana band The DeSotos are delighted to be performing once again at the Auckland Jazz & Blues Club, located at the Birkenhead RSA.
The DeSotos sound mixes elements of Americana, country rock and blues to produce a gumbo of roots-based and harmonically driven music.
The band has been recording further tracks for a new studio album and some of those will be on the setlist. Since the early 2000's The DeSotos have occupied a unique space in the New Zealand country blues scene, with their melodic songwriting accompanied by strong vocal harmonies and tight musicianship.
As well as original material the band features reference cover songs from the likes of Neil Young, Tom Petty and the Allman Brothers Band in their setlist.

The DeSotos lineup:
Paul Gurney - lead vocals, guitars & blues harp
Stuart McIntyre - bass & vocals
Ron Stevens - Hammond, keyboards & vocals
Greg Tell - drums & percussion
