Netherlands-based band My Baby plays King Street Live in Masterton on Friday as part of a world tour in support of the trio's critically-acclaimed debut album, My Baby Loves Voodoo.
My Baby, comprised of guitarist Daniel Dafreez, drummer Joost van Dyke and vocalist Cato van Dyke, generate a danceable live act "brimming with voodoo blues, trance and funk", according to publicist Mahoney Harris.
Ms Harris said American soul funk legend Larry Graham - Sly and the Family Stone bassist and pioneer of the slap pop style of bass playing - discovered the Amsterdam native trio in 2012.
The trio subsequently toured Europe last year, Ms Harris said, "bringing their delta trance show to a rapidly growing worldwide fan base".
"My Baby is a soulful and rootsy blues-informed rock band that packs a political punch and a live experience that wills you to dance and fall into their voodoo trance."
