The Whanganui Musicians Club presents its first concert of 2022 on Friday, January 21 with a visit from one of the country's unique treasures in Paul Ubana Jones.
Paul has been entertaining and inspiring audiences here and around the world for many years. He's putting the final touches on his 10th record album that will be released later this year, and continues to grow an audience of dedicated followers by 'taking it to the people' year in, year out.
Paul is in the midst of one of his comprehensive tours, playing 14 towns in January and a couple more in February, as he criss-crosses both islands of the country. There is the modern troubadour side of his wanderings, as he connects us with the country we inhabit.
Commenting on his recent journeys, Paul says, "Touring at present is quite a 'strange train' to ride. Covid is being a huge planetary game changer! But I'm a true 'working class optimist'! My gift is music, and I love bringing people together."
And then there is the music. There are few people alive who combine singing, songwriting, and virtuoso guitar playing in a solo performance that always produces great moments.
