BIOGRAPHY
The Julie Lamb Outfit is an 8 piece mischief groove collective from Wellington, NZ (Te Whanganui a Tara, Aotearoa), bringing you impressive arrangements; energising, personality filled music; awesome harmonies; groovy stories.
The mischief manager (Julie Lamb) has gathered groove from all over Wellington in SHAN JORDAN (Keys & Vocals) MATT FITZPATRICK (Guitar) GIACOMO CALEFFI (Drums) PETE NOLA (Trombone) NICHOLAS BAUCKE-MAUNSELL (Saxophone) KATE RICHARDS (Vocals) CALLUM HAZLITT-BLACK (Bass) and of course JULIE LAMB (Vocals).
Audiences and reviewers alike talk about their fusion of arrangements and talent as magic. The Outfit shared that this magic simply comes from "enjoying what you do, respecting and laughing with the people you do it with, and of course, pizza every band practice helps a little too".
This electric group features a crispy base of groove held together by saucy, but never cheesy stories, topped with delicious harmonies.
You don't just listen to the Julie Lamb Outfit, you immerse yourself in a joyful experience.
"Every song carries a unique edge that sets it apart from the standard rock fodder lurking on every corner" MARTYN PEPPERELL, FISHHEAD MAGAZINE
“It’s great to hear some funky pop-rock with good old fashioned backing vocals and horn parts too. A class act made all the better by the joie-de-vivre it encapsulates and projects" BING TURKBY, NZ MUSICIAN MAGAZINE
"If you can, catch Julie Lamb live." JOHN SHEARER, MUZIC.NET.NZ
