About Me |
|
| The Mighty Ramble is a newly formed band from Wellington with a deep commitment to capturing the soul and groove of the classic blues, drawing on a wide range of other influences to create original New Zealand music.
The roots of the band go back to the beginning of the century when guitarist and front man Al Campbell met up with Drummer Andy Hoy at the Massey Jazz school. The connection was severed temporarily when Campbell departed for England for two years. The musical partnership with Hoy was rekindled early in 2007, by which time the focus of the music had shifted from Jazz to Blues. Working with many different local musicians the band started performing classic blues songs under the name "Freddie Crooked Mouth" at various local venues and party's. Towards the end of the year, Campbell and Hoy met up with double bassist Seamus Jolly who had moved to Wellington earlier that year. Originally from Masterton, Jolly studied music at the Christchurch Jazz School. The chemistry with this new line up was immediate and soon original songs were being added to the repertoire. An new moniker was needed for this new evolution and The Mighty Ramble was born. |
