Brilleaux LIVE


Just a last minute reminder everybody - dont miss the hard to Handle Reunion gig at the Colosseum THIS WEEKEND

Did I forget to mention - it is being RECORDED LIVE, and we are hoping to have a LIVE ALBUM ready (albeit a limited number) ready for the Easter jazz and Blues Fest in Tauranga.

The gig is being recorded and engineered by Daniel Howard, who was "the Man" responsible for recording 8-Track Style. He is coming over to Tauranga for the weekend to make sure the sound on the night is as good as it could be.

Brilleaux are very fortunate to have enlisted the services of a very good friend of ours, Mr Tim Julian on keyboards.
We are just blown away by the wicked extra flavour he adds to the Brilleaux sound, and some of our old numbers really come alive with what he has to offer.

On top of some of our regular favourites, this gig will actually record 3 brand new, as yet unrecorded originals, so keep your ear out for them.


At this stage, the set list looks like being as follows, but may change depending on how long we are due to play for.

Phantom Teardrop or a Teisco May Queen






Anybody out there got a Phantom or a Vox Teardrop Guitar? How about a Teisco May Queen?
I am pretty keen to get my hands on either one of these. You can contact me at: brilleaux@xtra.co.nz or phone 021 236 8800
