Clubhouse Concerts


Adam McGrath and The Eastern

Saturday 26 July 2025 - 7:00 PM

This Event is Sold Out


The Eastern are a string band that roars like a punk band, that swings like a gospel band, that drinks like a country band, that works like a bar band, that hopes like folk singers, and sings love songs like union songs, and writes union songs like love songs, and wants to slow dance and stand on tables, all at the same time. Four albums and well over 1000 shows deep The Eastern have played and toured with Fleetwood Mac, Steve Earle and Old Crow Medicine Show amongst others, ticking off miles, countries and new friends and fans wherever they get to roaming.

Adam McGrath HAS BEEN DESCRIBED AS A “NATIONAL TREASURE” BY RADIO NEW ZEALAND NATIONAL AND HIS SONGS HAVE GATHERED MORE THAN THEIR SHARE OF GOOD NOTICES AT HOME AND OVERSEAS, HE'S BEEN NOMINATED FOR A COUPLE OF SERIOUS MUSIC AWARDS (INCLUDING THE APRA SILVER SCROLL), AND THE NZ HERALD CALLED HIM “NZ'S TOUGHEST MINDED SONGWRITER”. BARRY SAUNDERS FROM KIWI COUNTRY LEGENDS THE WARRATAHS SIMPLY DESCRIBED HIM AS “THE TRUTH”.
