The Eastern have played everywhere (man), from Nashville to Timaru and a few stops in between. Christchurch is home but Lyttelton's where the heart is, as they drink with sailors as house band at the Wunderbar and remember songs shouted across the booth at Sun Studios, on stages in London, in rebel pubs in Baltimore.

The Eastern play because they have to, not to see their faces in a magazine or in a video or on a chart. They'll play because they care, about the songs, about the show, about the folks they meet and the hands they shake. They play like it matters, like it's all they know how to do – 'cause it does and it is.
