Winners of the New Zealand Music Award for Folk Album of the
Year 2014, Tattletale Saints are led by
guitarist/vocalist Cy Winstanley and double
bassist/vocalist Vanessa McGowan.
Fresh off the back of their Tui win in January 2014, Tattletale Saints
relocated to Nashville, Tennessee to embark on a 50-date tour of the United
States. This time spent in the vibrant Nashville music scene inspired a change
in the band’s sound, and they welcome the addition of celebrated NZ drummer Tom
Broome for this, their 5th New Zealand tour.
Performances on the tour will include songs performed as a duo, re-imagined
versions of songs with drums, and brand new material off the band’s forthcoming
full band album, due for release in 2015.
Described as a “intelligent, entertaining and thoroughly captivating” (Sing
Out! Magazine, 2014) debut album How Red Is the Blood was
recorded in January 2013 in Nashville, TN alongside Grammy winning producer and
multi instrumentalist Tim O’Brien.
