There is a buskers festival this weekend. Check it out : www.aucklandbuskersfestival.co.nz
You will probably find few or no musicians included in the lineup.
Busking festival organisers are generally unsupportive to musicians. We don’t qualify despite having been in the busking tradition for thousands of years. Ha ha!

Reha is now available for download on iTunes.
Originally released in 1994 Reha was produced by Norwegian Jan Bille. Players are
Luke Hurley : 12 string ovation/vocal
James Wilkinson : bass/backing vocals
Jan Bille : electric guitar/e bow
Mathew Lawrence : percussion
All songs by Luke Hurley
The word Reha means the realisation that we have eternal life
Who would not want to know this state of being? Sometimes I think we all have it. Its like eternity is planted in our hearts.
The album was recorded one week at KATS Christchurch and post production was done in the weeks following
I just laid down the guitar and vocal and Jan and James did the rest
I never had the resources to promote this album. It’s a bit of a sleeper. It doesn’t just have my sound. It also has Jan’s signature. His production work is unique. I hope to work with him again soon.
Without Jann Hurley’s help Reha would never have materialised. She suggested I work with Jan Bille & made it possible to go down to Christchurch . Everything To Me was written for her
Not Easy To We think we understand things. We know very little.Life’s a miracle and a mystery!

Duvalier about the Haitian dictator was a memorable song from this album.
“Duvalier .. Duvalier- you took the money and you ran away.”
The new artwork is by Elena Panaita based on a photo by Dave Mann .
