Take It To The Bridge (Vinyl LP)

Much-loved Don McGlashan is releasing his first live album! Recorded throughout his nationwide tour for Bright November Morning, these cross-venue, cross-island recordings are compiled together to form Take it to the Bridge. Paired with violin and vocals from Anita Clark (Motte) it's a set list that captures his songs in their most intimate form. - Flying Out

Don McGlashan — one of New Zealand’s best-loved songwriters — will release his first live album, Take It to the Bridge, this August. Don won fame with the iconic groups The Mutton Birds, The Front Lawn and Blam Blam Blam, and has continued to fly high with four acclaimed solo albums — Bright November Morning was his first number 1 album. At the heart of it all, though, is Don’s passion for storytelling, and he’s already working on his next album, scheduled for release next year. More than just a souvenir of the nationwide tour, Take It to the Bridge captures Don’s songs in their most intimate form. The lean, nimble lineup of Don on guitar and horns and Anita Clark on violin and vocals elevate each performance with quiet intensity.
